Using GLib for structures like linked lists (GList) etc. is a much
better solution than reinventing them unnecessarily. That said, many of
them are poorly implemented--e.g. GList appending is O(n) rather than
O(1) if you only keep track of the first element; there's no "list head"
to manage this (a major omission on their part). So then you need to
keep track of both ends by hand and keep them both up-to-date... and it
ends up creating additional overhead on your part. So it's far cruder
than e.g. C++ std::vector<T> or std::list<T>. If you're going to do a
lot of insertion/deletion/traversal then you'll find the C++ containers
both simpler and more efficient in most cases, not to mention more
robust. If you use e.g. std::vector<T> you can still use it with C
functions which want a T[] or T* via its data() method.
