Parameters

context

Type: PangoContext

A PangoContext.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

bytes

Type: GBytes

The bytes containing the data.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the function if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Type: PangoFont

A new PangoFont.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.

The return value can be NULL.
