Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Daniel P. Berrange 076f200689 Add impl of APIs to get user directories on Win32
Add an impl of +virGetUserRuntimeDirectory, virGetUserCacheDirectory
virGetUserConfigDirectory and virGetUserDirectory for Win32 platform.
Also create stubs for non-Win32 platforms which lack getpwuid_r()

In adding these two helpers were added virFileIsAbsPath and
virFileSkipRoot, along with some macros VIR_FILE_DIR_SEPARATOR,
VIR_FILE_DIR_SEPARATOR_S, VIR_FILE_IS_DIR_SEPARATOR,
VIR_FILE_PATH_SEPARATOR, VIR_FILE_PATH_SEPARATOR_S

All this code was adapted from GLib2 under terms of LGPLv2+ license.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
