does btTriangleMesh need to be deleted?

Hi All,
Quicky question.
I am creating a btTriangleMesh and then creating a btBvhTriangleMeshShape using that object.
Do I need to specifically delete the btTriangleMesh object?
I ask because in the RayTest demo they create btTriangleMesh object, but don't delete it.

For btBvhTriangleMeshShape you need to keep the mesh data around (there is no deep copy of data), until you delete the btBvhTriangleMeshShape, and only then you can delete/free the btTriangleMesh. Some demos might leak memory, that needs to be fixed.

Ok, thanks for the answer
