ClutterActordestroy_all_children

Destroys all children of self.

This function releases the reference added by inserting a child actor in the list of children of self, and ensures that the ClutterActor::destroy signal is emitted on each child of the actor.

By default, ClutterActor will emit the ClutterActor::destroy signal when its reference count drops to 0; the default handler of the ClutterActor::destroy signal will destroy all the children of an actor. This function ensures that all children are destroyed, instead of just removed from self, unlike clutter_actor_remove_all_children() which will merely release the reference and remove each child.

Unless you acquired an additional reference on each child of self prior to calling clutter_actor_remove_all_children() and want to reuse the actors, you should use clutter_actor_destroy_all_children() in order to make sure that children are destroyed and signal handlers are disconnected even in cases where circular references prevent this from automatically happening through reference counting alone.
