+ * # Standard type declaration and definition macros #
+ *
+ * A lot of the code outlined above follows a standard pattern and naming
+ * convention. To reduce the amount of boilerplate code that needs to be
+ * written for a new type there are two sets of macros to generate the
+ * common parts in a standard format.
+ *
+ * A type is declared using the OBJECT_DECLARE macro family. In types
+ * which do not require any virtual functions in the class, the
+ * OBJECT_DECLARE_SIMPLE_TYPE macro is suitable, and is commonly placed
+ * in the header file:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Declaring a simple type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * OBJECT_DECLARE_SIMPLE_TYPE(MyDevice, my_device, MY_DEVICE, DEVICE)
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * This is equivalent to the following:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Expansion from declaring a simple type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * typedef struct MyDevice MyDevice;
+ * typedef struct MyDeviceClass MyDeviceClass;
+ *
+ * G_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_CLEANUP_FUNC(MyDeviceClass, object_unref)
+ *
+ * #define MY_DEVICE_GET_CLASS(void *obj) \
+ * OBJECT_GET_CLASS(MyDeviceClass, obj, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ * #define MY_DEVICE_CLASS(void *klass) \
+ * OBJECT_CLASS_CHECK(MyDeviceClass, klass, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ * #define MY_DEVICE(void *obj)
+ * OBJECT_CHECK(MyDevice, obj, TYPE_MY_DEVICE)
+ *
+ * struct MyDeviceClass {
+ * DeviceClass parent_class;
+ * };
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * The 'struct MyDevice' needs to be declared separately.
+ * If the type requires virtual functions to be declared in the class
+ * struct, then the alternative OBJECT_DECLARE_TYPE() macro can be
+ * used. This does the same as OBJECT_DECLARE_SIMPLE_TYPE(), but without
+ * the 'struct MyDeviceClass' definition.
+ *
+ * To implement the type, the OBJECT_DEFINE macro family is available.
+ * In the simple case the OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE macro is suitable:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Defining a simple type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE(MyDevice, my_device, MY_DEVICE, DEVICE)
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * This is equivalent to the following:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Expansion from defining a simple type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * static void my_device_finalize(Object *obj);
+ * static void my_device_class_init(ObjectClass *oc, void *data);
+ * static void my_device_init(Object *obj);
+ *
+ * static const TypeInfo my_device_info = {
+ * .parent = TYPE_DEVICE,
+ * .name = TYPE_MY_DEVICE,
+ * .instance_size = sizeof(MyDevice),
+ * .instance_init = my_device_init,
+ * .instance_finalize = my_device_finalize,
+ * .class_size = sizeof(MyDeviceClass),
+ * .class_init = my_device_class_init,
+ * };
+ *
+ * static void
+ * my_device_register_types(void)
+ * {
+ * type_register_static(&my_device_info);
+ * }
+ * type_init(my_device_register_types);
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * This is sufficient to get the type registered with the type
+ * system, and the three standard methods now need to be implemented
+ * along with any other logic required for the type.
+ *
+ * If the type needs to implement one or more interfaces, then the
+ * OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_INTERFACES() macro can be used instead.
+ * This accepts an array of interface type names.
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Defining a simple type implementing interfaces</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_INTERFACES(MyDevice, my_device,
+ * MY_DEVICE, DEVICE,
+ * { TYPE_USER_CREATABLE }, { NULL })
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
+ *
+ * If the type is not intended to be instantiated, then then
+ * the OBJECT_DEFINE_ABSTRACT_TYPE() macro can be used instead:
+ *
+ * <example>
+ * <title>Defining a simple type</title>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * OBJECT_DEFINE_ABSTRACT_TYPE(MyDevice, my_device, MY_DEVICE, DEVICE)
+ * </programlisting>
+ * </example>
