#2169 closed defect (fixed)

Do we still need 'isachild' member in styleObj?

Description

While working on #302, I noticed the isachild member in the styleObj that doesn't seem to be used any more (or anyway its value doesn't seem to be used anywhere based on a quick grep):

#ifndef SWIG
  /* Whether the style is within a class MS_TRUE or MS_FALSE.
   * If true, then memory deallocation is handled by the class
   * if false, then memory deallocation must be handled by the
   * application.
   */
  int isachild;
#endif

Can we remove this member? Is it still used by any of the SWIG wrappers?

style.i still references that attribute. However, it only sets it and there is no code that relies on the value that I can find. So, I think it could be removed (style.i would need updating then).

Sounds good, taking this ticket and removing isachild now.
