The G_DEFINE_TYPE() stuff is a macro that expands to the
common boilerplate code.  The description of
G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED:

  http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gobject/gobject-Type-Information.html#G-DEFINE-TYPE-EXTENDED:CAPS

explains quite clearly what it expands to.  If you have this
and are able to write the boilerplate code manually, what
other documentation is needed?
