Fixes a small reference leak in the get_property/set_property methods (1.17 KB, patch)

Here signals and properties are unreffed to much. The dictionary returns a borrowed reference, so they shouldn't be unreffed. (805 bytes, patch)

Description Johan (not receiving bugmail) Dahlin 2002-02-09 15:08:14 UTC 
PyGTK leaks quite a bit.

This is a metabug for solving all leaks

Should check if memprof works okay for 2.0 apps, as it would give much
more detailed information.  Looking at the size of the VM map is a
very crude way of looking for leaks.

Comment 4 James Henstridge 2002-08-18 04:15:11 UTC 
applied Arjan's patch.  Please don't attach random memory leak patches
to this bug though.  Instead, file separate bugs (I had almost
overlooked this one).

Moved the last attachment to bug 91244

Arjan, in the future, please _don't_ add any more patches to this bug.
File separate bugs instead.
Comment 7 James Henstridge 2002-11-20 13:41:59 UTC 
mass reassign of open pygtk and gnome-python bugs.
Comment 8 Johan (not receiving bugmail) Dahlin 2003-01-24 01:57:56 UTC 
Meta bugs are not very useful, since we have very few open bugs.
It's better to consider everything leakless (or bug free). And then
fix bugs as new bug reports get filed.

Closing.
