Hi Folks I have a function which is eating up lots of memory. The function is listed below and is called every 1 second with the same GtkWidget *widget being passed to it each time. What do I need to do to stop it eating up memory. All I want the function to do is set the colours of itself and its parent(if it has one). Any help greatly appreciated. int SetWidgetColour(GtkWidget *widget, int bordersize, int red, int green, int blue) { GtkStyle *new_style; GdkColor color; color.red = red; color.green = green; color.blue = blue; gdk_color_alloc(gdk_colormap_get_system(), &color); new_style = gtk_style_copy(gtk_widget_get_default_style()); new_style->bg[GTK_STATE_NORMAL] = color; new_style->bg[GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT] = color; new_style->bg[GTK_STATE_ACTIVE] = color; gtk_style_detach (widget->style); gtk_widget_set_style(GTK_WIDGET(widget), new_style); return TRUE; } -- Atsushi Maeda 2-10-22 Mukaibara Asao-ku Kawasaki-shi Kanagawa-ken 215-0007 JAPAN Mail1: maeda@xxxxxxxxxxxx Mail2: assio.maedario@xxxxxxxxxxxx Phone: +81-80-5532-0156 _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
