	Memory Management - Screenshots
	The sample application shows that creating and disposing a form with an eventhandler increase memory usage. The form does not get collected by the garbage collector because of the strong event handler. *Shows the memory usage with default events* The sample application shows that creating and disposing a form with an eventhandler of a QWeakEvent does not increase memory usage. The form gets collected normally by the garbage collector. *Shows the memory usage with QWeakEvents* The sample application shows that creating and disposing a form with a default IMessageFilter implementation increase memory usage.
