Re: allocated memory

["Maher Awamy" <muhri muhri net>]

Allocated memory used by Gtk+ allocation is freed automatically, unless you are
using a struct that you allocate yourself. ie

GtkWidget *my_widget = some_widget_new();
when this widget is destroyed or its parent, its allocated mem is freed
automatically but if you have a 

typedef struct {

GtkWidget *my_widget1;
GtkWidget *my_widget2;
someo ther things;
}my_struct;

and you destroy the widgets in the struct - you have to free the struct memory
itself.

so if you used g_new0 to initlize and allocate the struct, you'd have to
g_free() it afterwards even if you destroy the widgets.
