What are the void* pointers typically expected to point to...?
Property data structures.
As I suppose these void* values are often pointers to some malloced
memory in many cases, how is it expected that resource management of
that memory is done...? I.e., when the a list gets destroyed

FreeType. If there is ever a need to pass a new string to the
library (for which I currently don't have a use case), the data
will be copied.
Wait how does that work?
That suggests that freetype will copy any structure passed in into
malloced memory or something; otherwise, one
2012/8/22 Werner LEMBERG w...@gnu.org:
But since (AFAICT) the property mechanism is generic, the type of
the data structure wouldn't be known except to the eventual caller
of FT_Property_Get. Given this, how can FT_Property_Set know the
size of the data structure passed in, to malloc/copy it?
