Do destructible groups leak?

[Accname]

if i pick all destructibles in a region and do a bunch of actions with the picked destructible, will it leak? cause unit groups do, but i cant set destructible groups in the variable editor...

There aren't any. So, no.

but whats the difference between pick all units within region and pick all destructibles within region? how can the first one leak and the second cant?

well if you use the

 Pick every unit in .....

function, it takes a group, which will be automatically created when you use gui actions like "all units in playable map area".

in jass:

function ForGroupBJ takes group whichGroup, code callback returns nothing // <-- whichGroup will leak here if you dont clean it
    // If the user wants the group destroyed, remember that fact and clear
    // the flag, in case it is used again in the callback.
    local boolean wantDestroy = bj_wantDestroyGroup
    set bj_wantDestroyGroup = false

    call ForGroup(whichGroup, callback)

    // If the user wants the group destroyed, do so now.
    if (wantDestroy) then
        call DestroyGroup(whichGroup)
    endif
endfunction

and for the Pick every destructable:

native EnumDestructablesInRect takes rect r, boolexpr filter, code actionFunc returns nothing

as you can see its a native function and nothing will be created therefore noithing leaks.

Pick all units created a handle (unit group)
Pick all destructibles doesn't.
