Declaration [src] 

gchar*
gimp_image_export_path_to_string (
  GimpImage* image,
  GimpPath* path
)

Description [src]

Save a path as an SVG string.

This procedure works like gimp_image_export_path_to_file() but creates a string rather than a file. The string is NULL-terminated and holds a complete XML document. Pass NULL as the ‘path’ argument to export all paths in the image.

Available since: 2.6

Parameters

path

Type: GimpPath

The path object to export, or NULL for all in the image.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.

Return value

Type: gchar*

     A string whose contents are a complete SVG document.
     The returned value must be freed with g_free().

The caller of the method takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
