Yes.  For example, in an object finaliser (my mainwindow contains the
GladeXML object):


static void
cse_mainwindow_finalize (CseMainwindow  *window)
{
  g_return_if_fail(CSE_IS_MAINWINDOW(window));

  /* Free the Glade XML interface description. */
  if (window->xml)
    {
      g_object_unref(G_OBJECT(window->xml));
      window->xml = NULL;
    }
[...]

  GObjectClass *parent_object_class = G_OBJECT_CLASS(parent_class);
  if (parent_object_class->finalize)
    parent_object_class->finalize(G_OBJECT(window));
}

Roger
