GSF depends on the following libraries:
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><table border="0">
<col align="left" valign="top">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">GLib</span></p></td>
<td><p>
A general-purpose utility library, not specific to graphical user interfaces.
GLib provides many useful data types, macros, type conversions,
string utilities, file utilities, a main loop abstraction, and so on.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term">Libxml2</span></p></td>
<td><p>
A library that provides a parser and toolkit for XML, the <a class="ulink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML" target="_top">Extensible Markup Language</a>.
XML is a metalanguage used to define markup languages (text languages where
structure and semantics are added to the content using extra "markup"
information).
</p></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></div>
<p>
The core GSF library can be built to also utilize the following libraries:
</p>
<div class="variablelist"><table border="0">
<col align="left" valign="top">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term"><a class="ulink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zlib" target="_top">zlib</a></span></p></td>
<td><p>
A data
compression library that implements the DEFLATE algorithm used in gzip.
</p></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><span class="term"><a class="ulink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2" target="_top">libbz2</a></span></p></td>
<td><p>
A data compression library that implements the algorithm used in bzip2.
</p></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></div>
<p>
A separate GSF library can be built that offers additional functionality for
use in the GNOME desktop environment. That library has the following
additional requirements:

<a class="ulink" href="http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gnome-vfs-2.0/" target="_top">GnomeVFS</a>
is a filesystem abstraction library that allows applications plugable
transparent access to a variety of "real" filesystems, including networked
filesystems like WebDAV, storage on devices like digital cameras, to the
local filesystem.
