     A new heap-allocated iterator is created and returned, initialised for iterating over the elements of the array.
     This iterator should be freed when you are done with it, using

+    <link linkend='g-variant-iter-free'><function>g_variant_iter_free()</function></link>.
     <link linkend='NULL--CAPS'><literal>NULL</literal></link> may also be given to indicate that the value of the array
     should be ignored.
