if i close my app while a component is fading out, it leaks memory like that (in this case it’a label).

if the component is not fading there are no leaks. should i wait for the fade to end, or can i explicitly delete the special component used for the fade effect?

I don’t think it deletes the component that’s being faded out, it deletes the proxy component…

Component Class Reference:

Component::fadeOutComponent

I wouldn’t worry about it. Leaks are never to be encouraged, but in this case leaking the temporary fade-out component won’t do any harm at all.

i delete the component anyway, but that’s not the problem.

i think the component created by juce is left in memory. i know it’s not much, i wont worry about it. i just thought i’d mention this, i’m using juce’s memory leak check and i liek it when none occur.
