Plain Old Data (POD) types with or without a representation in the GType type system can still have a copy and/or a free function. We should allow annotating these types with their corresponding functions for copying their data into a new instance, and freeing their data. From a language bindings perspective, POD types should have a boxed GType wrapper around them, so they can use the generic GBoxed API to copy and free instances; from a documentation perspective, though, it'd be good to have a way to match a structured type, like a struct or a union, with its copy and free functions. In order to do that, we add two new header block annotations: - (copy-func function_name) - (free-func function_name) These annotations work exactly like ref-func and unref-func for typed instances: /** * GdkRGBA: (copy-func gdk_rgba_copy) * (free-func gdk_rgba_free) * @ReD: ... * @green: ... * @blue: ... * @alpha: ... * *...
