[perl-win32-gui-hackers] User Object leak for combobox

[Jeremy W. <jez...@ho...>]

All,

When the code below is run, it leaks User objects in the task manager. This 
is with the latest codeline running under XP.

Both -dropdown and -dropdownlist options highlight the leak. I've have a 
quick glance through the code but can't seem to find anything that could 
cause this - a windows bug perhaps?

It's only a minor problem, and again only an issue if dynamic controls are 
repeatedly created/destroyed. Saying that, there is only a 10K limit on 
objects before things go boom - and win32-gui does seem to create a lot of 
objects - my app - before it's done anything has 650+, so it might be 
highlighting some other problem.

Cheers,

jez.
