Re: Gdkpixmap Memory leak

[Boris Villazon <villazob ucbcba edu bo>]

Thanks for your answers.

I have already proved the g_object_unref, and I still have the memory leak.
The memory increases every time that I change the xpm to my gtkpixmap.

I have proved also with gdk_drawable_unref and the memory leak remains.

Any ideas? Any help?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Boris
