Description Nick Bowler 2014-01-23 20:45:08 UTC

The definition of cairo_raster_source_acquire_func_t in the "Raster Sources" section of the manual is wrong.

See

  http://cairographics.org/manual/cairo-Raster-Sources.html#cairo-raster-source-acquire-func-t

which defines the cairo_raster_source_acquire_func_t type as (simplified by
omitting arguments):

  cairo_surface_t (*cairo_raster_source_acquire_func_t)()

When in reality this type is (simplified):

  cairo_surface_t *(*cairo_raster_source_acquire_func_t)()

i.e., the actual type is "pointer to a function returning pointer to
cairo_surface_t", but the documentation describes it as "pointer to function
returning cairo_surface_t".
