GObject and Gtk+ Finalization

[Eric Lemings <eric b lemings lmco com>]

G'day,

In Gtk+ 1.2, the GtkObject class has a three-step process for releasing
objects: shutdown, destroy, and finalize.  In GLib 2.0, the GObject
class only has two steps: shutdown and finalize.

What happened to destroy?  Did the paradigm change?

Thanks,
Eric.
