Registers a libvirt event loop implementation that is backed
by the default GMain context. If invoked more
than once this method will be a no-op. Applications should,
however, take care not to register any another non-GLib
event loop with libvirt.
After invoking this method, it is mandatory to run the
default GMain event loop. Typically this can be satisfied
by invoking gtk_main or g_application_run
in the application's main thread. Failure to run the event
loop will mean no libvirt events get dispatched, and the
libvirt keepalive timer will kill off libvirt connections
frequently.
Call this function before using any other Libvirt GLib functions in your applications. It will initialize everything needed to operate the toolkit and parses some standard command line options.
Although you are expected to pass the argc, argv parameters from main() to this
function, it is possible to pass NULL if argv is not available or commandline
handling is not required.
argc and argv are adjusted accordingly so your own code will never see those
standard arguments.
This method will also turn on debug logging of the library if the
This function will terminate your program if it was unable to initialize
for some reason. If you want the program to fall back to an alternate
mode of operation call gvir_init_check instead.

This function does the same work as gvir_init() with only a single change: It does not terminate the program if the Libvirt GLib library can't be initialized. Instead it returns %FALSE on failure.
This way the application can fall back to some other mode of operation.
