###### i_cal_object_remove_depender

Removes a `depender` from the list of objects which should not be destroyed before this `iobject`, previously added with i_cal_object_add_depender(). It’s illegal to try to remove the `depender` which is not in the internal list.

###### i_cal_object_set_native_destroy_func

Sets a function to be used to destroy the native libical structure.

since: 1.0

###### i_cal_object_set_owner

Sets an owner of the native libical structure, that is an object responsible for a destroy of the native libical structure.

since: 1.0

###### i_cal_object_steal_native

Obtain native libical structure pointer associated with this `iobject` and sets the one at `iobject` to NULL, thus it’s invalid since now on.

since: 1.0

##### Methods inherited from GObject (43)

Please see GObject for a full list of methods.

#### Properties

##### Properties inherited from ICalObject (5)

###### ICalGLib.Object:always-destroy

Whether free the native libical structure on `ICalObject`‘s finalize even if the object has set an owner.

since: 3.0.11

###### ICalGLib.Object:is-global-memory

Whether the native libical structure is from a global shared memory. If TRUE, then it is not freed on `ICalObject`‘s finalize.

###### ICalGLib.Object:native

The native libical structure for this ICalObject.

###### ICalGLib.Object:native-destroy-func

GDestroyNotify function to use to destroy the native libical pointer.

###### ICalGLib.Object:owner

Owner of the native libical structure. If set, then it is responsible for a free of the native libical structure.

#### Signals

##### Signals inherited from GObject (1)

###### GObject::notify

The notify signal is emitted on an object when one of its properties has its value set through g_object_set_property(), g_object_set(), et al.

#### Class structure
