As the provider of the lower-level abstraction, you guarantee certain invariants. In this case, that every FT_Face has a driver, and the driver has knowledge of that FT_Face as long as it exists. If that invariant breaks, there’s nothing that the caller can reasonably do about it, because it’s none of the caller’s business. That’s what “abstraction” means. > This is highly dependent on the actual purpose of the program ... In that case, perhaps you could show us an example or two of how you deal with error returns from FT_Done_Face? _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list Freetype@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
