Do I need to discconect an actor's connected signals, before I destroy that actor?

[Lele]

So I’ve read the Tips on memory management to cleanup after my extension. I wondered if I need to disconnect an actor’s signals before destroying it?

For ex. I have this code:

someWidget.connect("key-press-event", () => something = "Blah");

and later I call someWidget.destroy(); Do I need to disconnect the signal before destroying someWidget?

Typically you do not need to disconnect signals on such an object, as they will be automatically be disconnected when the actor is destroyed.
