Libglade - Lets users load GLADE interfaces at runtime

Libglade lets a program to load its user interface from an XML description at runtime. The XML file format is that of the user interface builder GLADE, so libglade acts as an alternative to GLADE's code generation approach. You can change the look of your application without recompiling.

Libglade also provides a simple interface for connecting handlers to the various signals in the interface (on platforms where the gmodule library works correctly, it is possible to connect all the handlers with a single function call). Once the interface has been started, libglade gives no overhead, so there is no performance tradeoff beyond the initial interface loading time.
