How to install GTK from source code on Solaris 10

Background

C global variables in Eiffel

Per Module C Global Variables

If we write a C header file for a Eiffel application (not for Eiffel runtime), there are C variables in C header file which we use for interactive with Eiffel language. We should take care about the global C variables. They are not application level global variables if they are included several times. Note static C global variables of the same case.
