Hello. I'm no expert at those things, but during my coding with gtk I learned some things about memory management that I described in this forum post. You may find it useful quick-start introduction into official gobject and gtk documentation. http://gtkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=2412 -- Tadej Borovšak tadeb...@gmail.com tadej.borov...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
