DING-LIBS (DING Is Not Glib) are a set of small, useful libraries that the System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) uses and makes available to other projects. They include: libdhash, an implementation of a dynamic hash table which will dynamically resize to achieve optimal storage and access time properties; ini_config, a library for parsing and managing INI files; path_utils, a library to manage UNIX paths and subsets of paths; collection, a generic, hierarchical grouping mechanism for complex data sets; ref_array, a dynamically-growing, reference-counted array; libbasicobjects, a set of fundamental object types for C.
