If you manually create a DOM document in memory, e.g.
IDOM_Document* myDocument =
IDOM_DOMImplementation::getImplementation()->createDocument();
delete myDocument;
then you need to explicitly delete the document object.
But if you just retrieve the document object after parsing an instance document,
e.g.
IDOMParser *parser = new IDOMParser;
parser->parse(gXmlFile);
IDOM_Document *doc = parser->getDocument();
delete parser;
memory will be automatically taken care of by the IDOM parser when the
IDOMParser is deleted.
