/**
* SECTION:gbinding
* @Title: GBinding
* @Short_Description: Bind two object properties
*
* #GBinding is the representation of a binding between a property on a
* #GObject instance (or source) and another property on another #GObject
* instance (or target). Whenever the source property changes, the same
* value is applied to the target property; for instance, the following
* binding:
*
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* g_object_bind_property (object1, "property-a",
* object2, "property-b",
* G_BINDING_DEFAULT);
* ]|
*
* will cause the property named "property-b" of @object2 to be updated
* every time g_object_set() or the specific accessor changes the value of
* the property "property-a" of @object1.
*
* It is possible to create a bidirectional binding between two properties
* of two #GObject instances, so that if either property changes, the
* other is updated as well, for instance:
*
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* g_object_bind_property (object1, "property-a",
* object2, "property-b",
* G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL);
* ]|
*
* will keep the two properties in sync.
*
* It is also possible to set a custom transformation function (in both
* directions, in case of a bidirectional binding) to apply a custom
* transformation from the source value to the target value before
* applying it; for instance, the following binding:
*
* |[<!-- language="C" -->
* g_object_bind_property_full (adjustment1, "value",
* adjustment2, "value",
* G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL,
* celsius_to_fahrenheit,
* fahrenheit_to_celsius,
* NULL, NULL);
* ]|
*
* will keep the "value" property of the two adjustments in sync; the
* @celsius_to_fahrenheit function will be called whenever the "value"
* property of @adjustment1 changes and will transform the current value
* of the property before applying it to the "value" property of @adjustment2.
*
* Vice versa, the @fahrenheit_to_celsius function will be called whenever
* the "value" property of @adjustment2 changes, and will transform the
* current value of the property before applying it to the "value" property
* of @adjustment1.
*
* Note that #GBinding does not resolve cycles by itself; a cycle like
*
* |[
* object1:propertyA -> object2:propertyB
* object2:propertyB -> object3:propertyC
* object3:propertyC -> object1:propertyA
* ]|
*
* might lead to an infinite loop. The loop, in this particular case,
* can be avoided if the objects emit the #GObject::notify signal only
* if the value has effectively been changed. A binding is implemented
* using the #GObject::notify signal, so it is susceptible to all the
* various ways of blocking a signal emission, like g_signal_stop_emission()
* or g_signal_handler_block().
*
* A binding will be severed, and the resources it allocates freed, whenever
* either one of the #GObject instances it refers to are finalized, or when
* the #GBinding instance loses its last reference.
*
* Bindings for languages with garbage collection can use
* g_binding_unbind() to explicitly release a binding between the source
* and target properties, instead of relying on the last reference on the
* binding, source, and target instances to drop.
*
* #GBinding is available since GObject 2.26
