+ * @short_description: arrays of arbitrary elements which grow
+ *                     automatically as elements are added
+ *
+ * Arrays are similar to standard C arrays, except that they grow
+ * automatically as elements are added.
+ *
+ * Array elements can be of any size (though all elements of one array
+ * are the same size), and the array can be automatically cleared to
+ * '0's and zero-terminated.
+ *
+ * To create a new array use g_array_new().
+ *
+ * To add elements to an array, use g_array_append_val(),
+ * g_array_append_vals(), g_array_prepend_val(), and
+ * g_array_prepend_vals().
+ *
+ * To access an element of an array, use g_array_index().
+ *
+ * To set the size of an array, use g_array_set_size().
+ *
+ * To free an array, use g_array_free().
+ *
+ * <example>
+ *  <title>Using a #GArray to store #gint values</title>
+ *  <programlisting>
+ *   GArray *garray;
+ *   gint i;
+ *   /<!-- -->* We create a new array to store gint values.
+ *      We don't want it zero-terminated or cleared to 0's. *<!-- -->/
+ *   garray = g_array_new (FALSE, FALSE, sizeof (gint));
+ *   for (i = 0; i &lt; 10000; i++)
+ *     g_array_append_val (garray, i);
+ *   for (i = 0; i &lt; 10000; i++)
+ *     if (g_array_index (garray, gint, i) != i)
+ *       g_print ("ERROR: got &percnt;d instead of &percnt;d\n",
+ *                g_array_index (garray, gint, i), i);
+ *   g_array_free (garray, TRUE);
+ *  </programlisting>

+ *
+ * To set the size of a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_set_size().

+ * To free a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_free().
