    Make global GDK libgtk_only functions more private · eedbec20
    Emmanuele Bassi authored
    The current way of exposing GDK API that should be considered internal
    to GTK+ is to append a 'libgtk_only' suffix to the function name; this
    is not really safe.
    
    GLib has been using a slightly different approach: a private table of
    function pointers, and a macro that allows accessing the desired symbol
    inside that vtable.
    
    We can copy the approach, and deprecate the 'libgtk_only' symbols in
    lieu of outright removal.
