There are two references involved:
- a reference returned from object_new. user_creatable_add_type()
passes it back to the caller. The object_unref() you found is done
before returning NULL, because in that case nothing is being passed to
the caller
- a reference stored in child->parent. In case of error that reference
is dropped with object_property_del before returning NULL.
object_property_try_add_child must not store anything in child->parent
in case of error, and therefore it need not add that reference either.
I hope this is clearer.
Thanks,
Paolo
