Re: [gtkmm] how to free a pixbuf

[Silviu D Minut <minutsil cse msu edu>]

Thanks, this little snippet worked as expected, i.e. it does not leak
memory. As I suspected, it must be a design flaw in my application. So I
guess I should ask the following question:

What's the general procedure for reading and displaying a sequence of
images (of possibly different sizes)? The application must iterate through
the list of images upon user input (e.g. as in xv: space for the next
image, backspace for the previous).

Thanks!
