C files

Long time ago I wrote a library which binds together two or more GLib properties (when one property changes, the other automatically changes also).

I will not describe here details of my life, but the result was that this project was laid aside and unmaintained. Since that I have probably forgotten GLib and maybe even partially forgotten C language.

I tried to build GLib downloaded for the Git, but that does not compile.

Somebody reported that there was a bug in this code, but I can't find the email with the bug report. Please test it extensively.

I attach the C code I wrote several years ago in the hope that somebody may integrate it into GLib and maintain it.

This is a VERY useful code, please elaborate it.

thanks for your bug.

since GLib 2.26, GObject already has code to bind two properties together (with or without transformation functions):
