RBXSignal Garbage Collected

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

If you save to signal to an object but destroy the object, does the signal still get GC’d?

For example;

local signal = obj.AncestryChanged:connect(function(child, parent)
end)

--some time later
obj:Destroy()
#2

The connection does get disconnected. But you still have a reference to the connection object itself. However when the scope the local is declared in ends there won’t be any more references to the connection so it can get gc’d

Yes it will get disconnected and GC’ed, also, that is called a connection and not a signal.
