glib/iconv : delayed dependency

- Subject: glib/iconv : delayed dependency
- Date: Sun, 13 May 2001 16:09:16 +0200
the attached new file adds truely dynamic linking of iconv.dll
to glib for win32. It is simply wrapping the three used
iconv functions, to resolve them not at compile time, but
at runtime.
This gives the opportunity to distribute recent Gtk+ binary
versions without just another 0.5 MB dependency.
Every program not using the gconvert facility will not
notice the difference (while the internet providers
providing slow timebased connections will :-)
Programs using the gconvert facility should check the return
values of the convert functions, cause these functions now may
fail because of a missing iconv.dll. (It is spitting a g_warning
then.)
If the iconv.dll is available everthing will work as before.
Ok to commit ?
