init

If you use GLib from more than one thread, you must initialize the thread system by calling g_thread_init().

Since version 2.24, calling g_thread_init() multiple times is allowed, but nothing happens except for the first call.

Since version 2.32, GLib does not support custom thread implementations anymore and the @vtable parameter is ignored and you should pass null.

::: note g_thread_init() must not be called directly or indirectly in a callback from GLib. Also no mutexes may be currently locked while calling g_thread_init().

::: note To use g_thread_init() in your program, you have to link with the libraries that the command pkg-config --libs gthread-2.0 outputs. This is not the case for all the other thread-related functions of GLib. Those can be used without having to link with the thread libraries.
