These are example code snippets and clearly not complete applications.
Note that even the inclusion of header files is left out.

That is not sufficient.  A whole chapter describes the required
preparations and the developer MUST read this chapter to use gpgme.
There are even more severe pitfalls than leaving out the version check.
