How to destroy an object right

Ok I understand the heap advice. What's still not clear to me is that if I call delete MyFrame somewhere, is the destructor of the superclass also called or do I have to do it manually?

And if so, actually how? I tried QFrame::~QFrame() and it didn't work.

Qt Code:

Switch view

...
delete myWidget;
...

...
delete myWidget;
...

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

See C++ FAQ Lite: [11.12] When I write a derived class's destructor, do I need to explicitly call the destructor for my base class?
