I looked at the patch briefly, currently it still includes
unneeded functions like glade_preview_kill_preview().
- glade_preview_kill_preview() should be an implied exercise
by way of finalizing a GladePreview.
- The hash table bookkeeping the running previews should
hold the reference to the previews (i.e. the GDestroyNotify
for the hash table of previews should be g_object_unref).
- glade_preview_add_watch() should go away and the watch should
be added internally by the preview object, and destroyed
properly when the preview is unreffed.
- If the preview is notified that the child preview process
died, it should emit a "die" signal so that the GladeProject
which owns the preview can use that to remove it from the
hash table, resulting in it's dispose/finalize.
Please deal with these basic API/functionality issues first,
if the ref counts dont balance after that I'll help you take
a look at it and make sure that it finalizes properly.
Hint:
From GladeProject creating a preview should be:
/* comes with initial ref */
preview = glade_preview_launch (...);
/* hash table takes a ref */
g_hash_table_insert (project->priv->preview_hash, preview...);
/* pass ownership of the preview to the hash table */
g_object_unref (preview);
/* Watch previews that die */
g_signal_connect (preview, "die",
G_CALLBACK (remove_preview_from_hash_cb),
project);
... furthermore, the GDestroyNotify for the preview hash should
be a function that first disconnects the "die" signal callback
and *then* unrefs the preview.
Cheers,
