Method Detail

destroy

public void destroy()
This method is now a no-op. Native resources for a specific java object are automatically reclaimed during the finalization of that object.

Note: In some rare cases, subclasses may need an explicit call to destroy in order to release their native resources. These classes may override this method to provide this functionality.

Currently, the only example of this is Window. See its documentation for more details.

sink

public void sink()
Removes the floating reference from a GtkObject, if it exists. Otherwise does nothing.


getType

public static Type getType()
Retrieve the runtime type used by the GLib library.
