## Description

Initialization, shutdown, and version-check functions.

## Functions

### GMIME_CHECK_VERSION()

    #define             GMIME_CHECK_VERSION(major,minor,micro)

Check whether a GMime version equal to or greater than `major` .`minor` .`micro` is present.

#### Parameters

major | Minimum major version |
minor | Minimum minor version |
micro | Minimum micro version |

### g_mime_init ()

    void
    g_mime_init (void);

Initializes GMime.

### g_mime_shutdown ()

    void
    g_mime_shutdown (void);

Frees internally allocated tables created in `g_mime_init()`.

### g_mime_check_version ()

    gboolean
    g_mime_check_version (guint major,
                          guint minor,
                          guint micro);

Checks that the GMime library version meets the requirements of the required version.

#### Parameters

major | Minimum major version |
minor | Minimum minor version |
micro | Minimum micro version |

#### Returns

`TRUE` if the requirement is met or `FALSE` otherwise.
