GIO is a , designed to present with a modern and usable inter face to a virtual . It allows applications to access local and remote files with a single consistent API, which was designed "to overcome the shortco mings of GnomeVFS" and be "so good that developers prefer it over raw POSIX call s."[2] GIO serves as low-level system library for the GNOME /GNOME/GTK+ s tack and is being developed by The GNOME Project. It is maintained as a separate library, libgio-2.0, but it is bundled with GLib. GIO is free and open-source s oftware subject to the requirements of the GNU Lesser General Public License. Contents 1 Features 2 See also 3 References 4 External Features The abstract file system model of GIO consists of a number of interfaces and base classes for I/O and files. There is a number of stream classes, similar to the input and output stream hierarchies that can be found in frameworks like . There are interfaces related to applications and the types of files they han dle. There is a framework for storing and retrieving application settings. There is support for network programming, including name resolution, lowleve l socket and highlevel and server helper classes. There is support for connecting to -Bus, sending and receiving messages, ow ning and watching bus names, and making objects available on the bus. Beyond these, GIO provides facilities for file monitoring, asynchronous I/O and filename completion. In addition to the interfaces, GIO provides implementations for the local case. Implementations for various network file systems are provid ed by the GVFS package as loadable modules.
