gtkWidgetDestroy: gtkWidgetDestroy

Description

Destroys a widget. except that you don't have to cast the widget to GtkObject. When a widget is destroyed, it will break any references it holds to other objects. If the widget is inside a container, the widget will be removed from the container. If the widget is a toplevel (derived from GtkWindow), it will be removed from the list of toplevels, and the reference GTK+ holds to it will be removed. Removing a widget from its container or the list of toplevels results in the widget being finalized,

Usage

gtkWidgetDestroy(object, ...)

Arguments

object

Details

In most cases, only toplevel widgets (windows) require explicit destruction, because when you destroy a toplevel its children will be destroyed as well.
