=head2 GClosure / GPerlClosure

GPerlClosure is a wrapper around the gobject library's GClosure with
special handling for marshalling perl subroutines as callbacks.
This is specially tuned for use with GSignal and stuff like io watch,
timeout, and idle handlers.

For generic callback functions, which need parameters but do not get
registered with the type system, this is sometimes overkill.  See
GPerlCallback, below.

=item GClosure * gperl_closure_new (SV * callback, SV * data, gboolean swap)

Create and return a new GPerlClosure.  I<callback> and I<data> will be copied
for storage; I<callback> must not be NULL.  If I<swap> is TRUE, I<data> will be
swapped with the instance during invocation (this is used to implement
g_signal_connect_swapped()).

If compiled under a thread-enabled perl, the closure will be created and
marshaled in such a way as to ensure that the same interpreter which created
the closure will be used to invoke it.

=item GClosure * gperl_closure_new_with_marshaller (SV * callback, SV * data, gboolean swap, GClosureMarshal marshaller)

Like C<gperl_closure_new>, but uses a caller-supplied marshaller.  This is
provided for use in those sticky circumstances when you just can't do it 
any other way; in general, you want to use the default marshaller, which you
get if you provide NULL for I<marshaller>.

If you use you own marshaller, you need to take care of everything yourself,
including swapping the instance and data if C<GPERL_CLOSURE_SWAP_DATA
(closure)> is true, calling C<gperl_run_exception_handlers> if ERRSV is true
after invoking the perl sub, and ensuring that you properly use the
C<marshal_data> parameter as the perl interpreter when PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT is
defined.  See the implementation of the default marshaller,
C<gperl_closure_marshal>, in Glib/GClosure.xs for inspiration.

=head2 GPerlCallback

generic callback functions usually get invoked directly, and are not passed
parameter lists as GValues.  we could very easily wrap up such generic
callbacks with something that converts the parameters to GValues and then
channels everything through GClosure, but this has two problems:  1) the above
implementation of GClosure is tuned to marshalling signal handlers, which
always have an instance object, and 2) it's more work than is strictly
necessary.

additionally, generic callbacks aren't always kind to the GClosure paradigm.

so, here's GPerlCallback, which is designed specifically to run generic
callback functions.  it reads parameters off the C stack and converts them into
parameters on the perl stack.  (it uses the GValue to/from SV mechanism to do
so, but doesn't allocate any temps on the heap.)  the callback object itself
stores the parameter type list.

unfortunately, since the data element is always last, but the number of
arguments is not known until we have the callback object, we can't pass
gperl_callback_invoke directly to functions requiring a callback; you'll have
to write a proxy callback which calls gperl_callback_invoke.

I<func>: perl subroutine to call.  this SV will be copied, so don't worry about

I<data>: scalar to pass to I<func> in addition to all other arguments.  the SV
will be copied, so don't worry about reference counts.  may be #NULL.

I<n_params>: the number of elements in I<param_types>.

I<param_types>: the #GType of each argument that should be passed from the
invocation to I<func>.  may be #NULL if I<n_params> is zero, otherwise it must
be I<n_params> elements long or nasty things will happen.  this array will be
copied; see gperl_callback_invoke() for how it is used.

I<return_type>: the #GType of the return value, or 0 if the function has void
return.

=head2 Exception Handling

Like Event, Tk, and most other callback-using, event-based perl modules,
Glib traps exceptions that happen in callbacks.  To enable your code to
do something about these exceptions, Glib stores a list of exception
handlers which will be called on the trapped exceptions.  This is
completely distinct from the $SIG{__DIE__} mechanism provided by Perl
itself, for various reasons (not the least of which is that the Perl
docs and source code say that $SIG{__DIE__} is intended for running as
the program is about to exit, and other behaviors may be removed in the
future (apparently a source of much debate on p5p)).
