* g_steal_pointer:

*
* Conceptually, this transfers the ownership of the pointer from the
* referenced variable to the "caller" of the macro (ie: "steals" the
* reference).
*
* The return value will be properly typed, according to the type of
* @pp.
*
* This can be very useful when combined with g_autoptr() to prevent the
* return value of a function from being automatically freed. Consider
* the following example (which only works on GCC and clang):
*
* |[
* GObject *
* create_object (void)
* {
* g_autoptr(GObject) obj = g_object_new (G_TYPE_OBJECT, NULL);
*
* if (early_error_case)
* return NULL;
*
* return g_steal_pointer (&obj);
* }
* ]|
*
* It can also be used in similar ways for 'out' parameters and is
* particularly useful for dealing with optional out parameters:
*
* |[
* gboolean
* get_object (GObject **obj_out)
* {
* g_autoptr(GObject) obj = g_object_new (G_TYPE_OBJECT, NULL);
*
* if (early_error_case)
* return FALSE;
*
* if (obj_out)
* *obj_out = g_steal_pointer (&obj);
*
* return TRUE;
* }
* ]|
*
* In the above example, the object will be automatically freed in the
* early error case and also in the case that %NULL was given for
* @obj_out.
