Without knowing much about perl or it's internals, isn't this behaviour normal for perl, especially on windows? I was told that when perl variables are "freed", the perl interpreter keeps the memory malloc'ed in a pool to use again for any new perl variables or data structures it needs.

I don't see any memory leak when running your code? You don't need to do anything to 'destroy' a control, Win32::GUI should do the right thing (see below). The same also applies to windows, you can create/destroy (let them go out of scope) just like normal objects and all memory should be released. Well, I think anyway:) > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-GUI-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-GUI-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/perl-win32-gui-users http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/ __________ NOD32 4713 (20091223) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-GUI-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-GUI-Users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/perl-win32-gui-users http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/
