Memory Management of QTableWidget Items

Question

If I add a new QTableWidgetItem to a QTableWidget, do I have to free the memory myself or is it automatically handled. For example:

ui->table->setVerticalHeaderItem(0,new QTableWidgetItem(tr("Table Item")));

How is the dynamically created QTableWidgetItem handled?

Answer 1

The QTableWidget takes ownership of the QTableWidgetItem. You do not need to delete it.
