Hi,

When i do this:

public class MyTest extends Composite {
public MyTest (final Composite argParent, final int argStyle) {
super(argParent, SWT.NONE);
Color colorB = argParent.getDisplay()
.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_TITLE_BACKGROUND_GRADIENT);
setBackground(colorB);
}
....

Do i have to dispose the colorB to avoid memory leak ????

Thanks

JMi

Not for system colors. You don't own them so you don't dispose them.

If instead you did a new color here, then yes you would need to dispose
it when no longer needed.
