Description mehmet yasar 2007-12-06 08:44:26 UTC 
The documentation should precise that :
- poppler_document_new_from_data doesn't make a copy of the data
- the data must not be freed !
Comment 1 Yury G. Kudryashov 2013-08-07 09:44:58 UTC 
As far as I can see, poppler_document_new_from_data calls g_object_new internally, so you should call g_object_unref(). I don't think that this should be explicitly documented.
Comment 2 Torsten Schönfeld 2016-06-10 10:40:51 UTC 
I know this bug report is very old, but the original complaint seems valid to me and is still not resolved.  I think in comment 1, Yury misunderstood the report.  The issue is the missing documentation and introspection annotations for the data argument of poppler_document_new_from_data, not for the returned object.
