Function
Purplegdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size
unstable since: 3.0
Declaration [src]
GdkPixbuf*
purple_gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size (
const char* filename,
int width,
int height
)
Description [src]
Helper function that calls gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size()
and checks
both the return code and the GError and returns NULL if either one failed.
The gdk-pixbuf documentation implies that it is sufficient to check
the return value of gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size()
to determine
whether the image was able to be loaded. However, this is not the case
with gdk-pixbuf 2.23.3 and probably many earlier versions. In some
cases a GdkPixbuf object is returned that will cause some operations
(like gdk_pixbuf_scale_simple()) to rapidly consume memory in an
infinite loop.
This function shouldn’t be necessary once Pidgin requires a version of gdk-pixbuf where the aforementioned bug is fixed. However, it might be nice to keep this function around for the debug message that it logs.
Available since: 3.0
