Free DirectDraw interfaces and GDI Device contexts at ScreenExit() time. #4

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
We currently don't release GDI device contexts and DDraw interfaces at screen 
exit time on Windows.
This probably prevents ddraw library et al. from being released during the 
lifetime of the runtime.

-> Causes a few megabytes of lost VM for the remainder of the session.
-> Not a big deal, but something to clean up sometime.

=> CreateDC --> DeleteDC()
=> GetDC --> ReleaseDC()
=> DDraw interface --> deref->Release()
