<p>The Libvirt GLib library provides glue to integrate core libvirt
infrastructure with the GLib library. This enables consistent
error reporting procedures and a common event loop implementation
for applications.</p>
<p>Before using any functions in the Libvirt GLib library, it must be initialized
by calling <code class="code">gvir_init</code> or <code class="code">gvir_init_check</code>.</p>

<p>Call this function before using any other Libvirt GLib functions in your applications.
It will initialize everything needed to operate the toolkit and parses some standard
command line options.</p>
<p>Although you are expected to pass the <em class="parameter"><code>argc</code></em>
, <em class="parameter"><code>argv</code></em>
parameters from <code class="function">main()</code> to this
function, it is possible to pass NULL if <em class="parameter"><code>argv</code></em>
is not available or commandline
handling is not required.</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>argc</code></em>
and <em class="parameter"><code>argv</code></em>
are adjusted accordingly so your own code will never see those
standard arguments.</p>
<p>This method will also turn on debug logging of the library if the
<code class="literal">LIBVIRT_GLIB_DEBUG</code> environment variable is set.</p>
<p>This function will terminate your program if it was unable to initialize
for some reason. If you want the program to fall back to an alternate
mode of operation call <code class="code">gvir_init_check</code> instead.</p>

change: It does not terminate the program if the Libvirt GLib library
can't be initialized. Instead it returns <a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a> on failure.</p>
<p>This way the application can fall back to some other mode of
