If you have to scan some widgets and parse their labels to find out whether an archive is already displayed somewhere, you should primarily rethink your data structures... > Each menu label > page does contain the archive name. ...not only because this is the presentational layer and it can change easily (e.g. you find something should be displayed differently), unlike the underlying fact what is displayed where. > Since from the doc I read "the > string is owned by the widget and must not be freed" will I produce > memory leaks if I call gtk_notebook_get_menu_label_text() repeatedly? If it says the string is owned by the widget, it means it is not your business to free it or otherwise mess with it (and if you try, the compiled should warn you, because the return type is const gchar*). It is *owned* by the widget, and therefore the widget knows when and how to free it.
