Have destroyed method in Core class?

Have destroyed method in Core class? such as init method.

Hmm, just thinking out loud

function Someclass:destroy()
    for i, val in self do
        if val.removeFromParent and val:getParent() then
           val:removeFromParent()
        end
        self[i] = nil
    end
     if self.removeFromParent and self:getParent() then
           self:removeFromParent()
     end
     self = nil
end

@ar2rsawseen, destroy method didn't be invoked.

Well on its own, now, but you could call it when you want it

In Corona SDK, there's a destroy method like: sprite:removeSelf()

Compare with Gideros, we just call sprite:removeFromParent() or parent:removeChild(sprite). Is this ok?

Don't know why my game getting slower after a short time of continue playing

Well it all depends on implementation, if it's a Gideros built in class (as Sprite) than yes it should be enough
But if it's a custom class inherited from something or plain class, it all depends on what you do inside it

@thanhquan1512, you can also dump the memory usage after garbage collection to check for the usage of memory and leaks (if any)

@Atilim, is there a way to get the Texture memory and other memory allocated by the applications? That can allow to have some sort of a debug log overlay that displays how the memory is being allocated or deallocated.

ar2rsawseen · November 2012

@OZApps that would probably be Application:getTextureMemoryUsage() added some time ago

OZApps · November 2012

@Arthurs, that might take care of the Texture Memory, what about the other memory used by the application, the systemMemory, that is what I am talking about too.
