Re: checking for memory leaks in gtk

Hi,

Thanx for the reply, but I fail to see what exactly you propose I do. 

I've used the same valgrind flags as you've used from the beginning, still 
there were memory leaks reported.

I've also tried mtrace and it gives tons of leaks (as you also said, mtrace is 
not a solution).

Gtk apparently does much more allocations than simple Glib.

Any other ideas?
