/**
 * SECTION:ginitable
 * @short_description: Failable object initialization interface
 * @include: gio/gio.h
 * @see_also: #GAsyncInitable
 *
 * #GInitable is implemented by objects that can fail during
 * initialization. If an object implements this interface the
 * g_initable_init() function must be called as the first thing
 * after construction. If g_initable_init() is not called, or if
 * it returns an error, all further operations on the object
 * should fail, generally with a %G_IO_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED error.
 *
 * Users of objects implementing this are not intended to use
 * the interface method directly, instead it will be used automatically
 * in various ways. For C applications you generally just call
 * g_initable_new() directly, or indirectly via a foo_thing_new() wrapper.
 * This will call g_initable_init() under the cover, returning %NULL and
 * setting a %GError on failure.
 *
 * For bindings in languages where the native constructor supports
 * exceptions the binding could check for objects implemention %GInitable
 * during normal construction and automatically initialize them, throwing
 * an exception on failure.

 * @error: a #GError location to store the error occuring, or %NULL to
 * ignore.
 *
 * Initializes the object implementing the interface. This must be
 * done before any real use of the object after initial construction.
 *
 * Implementations may also support cancellation. If @cancellable is not %NULL,
 * then initialization can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object
 * from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error
 * %G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned. If @cancellable is not %NULL and
 * the object doesn't support cancellable initialization the error
 * %G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned.
 *
 * If this function is not called, or returns with an error then all
 * operations on the object should fail, generally returning the
 * error %G_IO_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED.
 *
 * Implementations of this method must be idempotent, i.e. multiple calls
 * to this function with the same argument should return the same results.
 * Only the first call initializes the object, further calls return the result
 * of the first call. This is so that its safe to implement the singleton
 * pattern in the GObject constructor function.
 *
 * Returns: %TRUE if successful. If an error has occurred, this function will
 *     return %FALSE and set @error appropriately if present.
