The XSI Curses standard, Issue 4 describes these functions. + X/Open Curses states regarding delwin: + + o It must delete subwindows before deleting their parent. + + o If delwin is asked to delete a parent window, it can only succeed + if the curses library keeps a list of the subwindows. SVr4 curses + kept a count of the number of subwindows rather than a list. It + simply returned ERR when asked to delete a subwindow. Solaris + X/Open curses does not even make that check, and will delete a par- + ent window which still has subwindows. + + o Since release 4.0 (1996), ncurses maintains a list of windows for + each screen, and is able to recursively delete subwindows when + asked to delete their parent. + + o NetBSD copied this feature of ncurses in 2003. + PDCurses follows the scheme used in Solaris X/Open curses. +
