Memory isn't freed for g_ptr_array after calling g_ptr_array_free(myAry, TRUE)

[Brian Lavender]

I am attempting to create a g_ptr_array_new_with_free_func. It appears
that the memory is not being free after calling 
g_ptr_array_free(myAry, TRUE);

Shouldn't it release the memory for all the elements?

    print_individual(theInd );
  }

  // free the array.
  g_ptr_array_free(myAry, TRUE);

  

  return 0;
}
