VipsObjectlocal_array

Make an array of NULL VipsObject pointers. When parent closes, every non-NULL pointer in the array will be unreffed and the array will be freed. Handy for creating a set of temporary images for a function.

The array is NULL-terminated, ie. contains an extra NULL element at the end.

Example:

VipsObject **t;

t = vips_object_local_array(parent, 5);
if (vips_add(a, b, &t[0], NULL) ||
    vips_invert(t[0], &t[1], NULL) ||
    vips_add(t[1], t[0], &t[2], NULL) ||
    vips_costra(t[2], out, NULL))
  return -1;
