I have some questions about various situations and whether or not GTK or my
program is responsible for freeing the objects/memory in these situations.
Situation 1: I have a (visible) form, with a container, with a widget. I
close the form. Are all the widgets (and the form) cleaned up?
Situation 2: I have the same as above, but the window is never shown, so
is never closed. However, gtk_main_quit() is called. Am I responsible for
the cleanup of the window? (And if I destroy the window manually, will it
clean up all of its children?)
Situation 3: I have a container, that has children, but that container is
never added to a form. Am I responsible for cleaning up the container?
And, as above, if I destroy the container, will it clean up its children,
or am I responsible for that?
Situation 4: I have a container with children (as in Situation 3), but it
was added to a form at one point (and later removed). Am I responsible for
that (are we back to Situation 3 at that point?)/
With those 4 situations, is the following the correct way to clean up any
of the objects that I am responsible for?
g_object_ref_sink(G_OBJECT(widget));
gtk_widget_destroy(widget);
g_object_unref(G_OBJECT(widget));
