Layered Open Source Software in C

[Shreyas]

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Does anyone know of any modern examples of open source software
implemented in ANSI-C using a truly layered architecture (preferably
in an OO fashion)?

I'd like to get a feel for what the industry best practices are in
ANSI-C these days. I'm reasonably experienced in C but I don't have
much experience writing layered code in it. I've mainly been using
structural decomposition for most of my programs.

Check out glib (http://developer.gnome.org/arch/gtk/glib.html), which
implements an impressive object and type system in C.

Coffee over the screen moment... this is utterly hilarious, and the
hubris is astonishing even by CBF standards.

Quite unbelievable.

Yuck.

Why? Taken out of context. I can't see a problem.
Oh wait, is is "debugger unfriendly"?
You aren't complaining about the *layout* are you?

Lurkers: Richard <unknown> has some odd ideas.

If that's what Richard <unknown> is complaining about, I agree with him
(and CBFalconer most emphatically does not). However, making this much
fuss about such a minor point seems an overreaction (and therefore quite
typical of Richard <unknown>).

You are answering a pure troll. This applies to both Richard the
lastnameless and Twinkletoes. Their only objective appears to be
to disturb the newsgroup.
