Description Behdad Esfahbod 2007-09-02 18:56:21 UTC 
Those should be pango.Context and pango.FontMap.  pango.Renderer is already   non-instantiable.

Alternatively, pango.Context() can be changed to take a fontmap argument and return fontmap.create_context(), but that deviates from the C API.
Comment 1 Behdad Esfahbod 2007-09-02 18:56:33 UTC 
Also pango.Font
Comment 2 Behdad Esfahbod 2007-09-02 19:02:55 UTC 
And pango.FontFace and pango.FontFamily
Comment 3 Gustavo Carneiro 2007-09-02 19:11:23 UTC 
pango.FontMap will become non-instantiable as soon as the GObject type receives the 'abstract' flag (G_TYPE_FLAG_ABSTRACT).  Probably the others as well.
Comment 4 Behdad Esfahbod 2007-09-02 19:38:20 UTC 
Makes sense for all except for pango.Context where we never subclass, so can't be made abstract.
Comment 5 Behdad Esfahbod 2007-09-02 19:38:44 UTC 
Filed bug 472924 to make Font* abstract in pango.
