c++ - Qt: does "new without delete" cause memory leaks with controls?

Question

I was looking at Qt example here:

and inside the constructor, they have:

 Window::Window()
 {
     editor = new QTextEdit();   // Memory leak?
     QPushButton *sendButton = new QPushButton(tr("&Send message")); // Memory leak?

     connect(sendButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(sendMessage()));

     QHBoxLayout *buttonLayout = new QHBoxLayout();  // Memory leak?
     buttonLayout->addStretch();
     buttonLayout->addWidget(sendButton);
     buttonLayout->addStretch();

     QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout(this);    // Memory leak?
     layout->addWidget(editor);
     layout->addLayout(buttonLayout);

     setWindowTitle(tr("Custom Type Sending"));
 }

Those lines with comments

// Memory leak?

aren't those memory leaks?

If so, since the Window class has no constructor, then I should make all of those variables (editor already is) Window member variables ?

Or..does Qt internally "delete" those member variables when it goes out of scope?

Answer 1

No, the addWidget() function will keep ownership of the widget. It will then destroy the widgets it owns.

Additionally you can read here that:

As with QObjects, QWidgets can be created with parent objects to indicate ownership, ensuring that objects are deleted when they are no longer used. With widgets, these parent-child relationships have an additional meaning: Each child widget is displayed within the screen area occupied by its parent widget. This means that when you delete a window widget, all the child widgets it contains are also deleted.
