Re: [Bf-committers] M Key in 2.8

So it will only deallocate the memory when you call it the next time but
you never need to do this when you destroy the object? Am I understanding
this correctly?
If so, then why not add a function to UItemMenuF that releases the memory?

Hi,

> BTW why would you leek memory by design? Have not written the garbage
collection yet or what?

I explain it here: https://developer.blender.org/rBf167226b793e

But basically in order to do multi-level (i.e., nested) menus with the
current code base I had to resort to uiItemMenuF.

This function takes a callback that it is used to build the menus
on-the-fly.
In order to build the menus I need valid data of which collections to show,
so they need to be pre-allocated.
However the operator that creates the menus (and allocates the data) exits
with OPERATOR_INTERFACE. And there is no garbage collection callback
function called when the menu is destroyed.

I guess I can also free the previously allocated memory in the operator
exec. This will leave the memory leakage to happen only when the menu is
called but dismissed.

The leakage is small though, so I'm not super concerned.

Thanks for that!
BTW why would you leek memory by design? Have not written the garbage
collection yet or what?

Hi,

Move to collections (M key) was just committed. We may iterate over it to
fix some technical issues (right now it is leaking memory "by design"). But
from the user perspective it should be fully functional.

This will be available in tomorrow's builder.blender.org download.

Soon.

If it is up to me, not that soon. We will try to open it for the general
public as soon as possible though.

> What is the best link for 2.8 news?

In the near future the best way to follow 2.8 will be following the Code
Quest in ways yet to be announced. For now keep an eye to the weekly dev
meetings every Monday in alternate times.

Not for the time being.

I forgot one thing.
My main focus is in helping newbies and teaching.
We have a LOT of parts of blender that are called "layers".
Do we have a plan to rename some of them or organize the terminology better?
