# Object lifetimes
|
||||
|
||||
Know them.
|
||||
|
||||
One of the more annoying parts of libui is that it has to juggle an OS control handle and at least one C data structure for a single uiControl, uiParent, uiWindow, etc. To that end, this document exists to lay the ground rules for object lifetimes.
|
||||
|
||||
## To end programmers
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
Note that control implementations generally don't need to worry about backend-specific information; these are handled by the backends's convenience functions. If you bypass those, however, you *will* need to worry.
