@D.BenKnoble I don't see why should I dig into the source code while even :h 'bufhidden' upholds this (pretty obvious, I believe) assertion.

Perhaps by "reference" @job_start means "citation" or "source"—it is standard to provide evidence for claims. For example, the "when" question is answered by :help bufhidden's first sentence.

By reference, I meant for example (if possible) you could show a reference to the source code where it indeed shows some "dealloc"s are called when the event BufWinLeave happens. This way if someone else asks me the same then I can confidently use/post your answer as a reference, too. Nevermind, I will remember your answer and try to prove it myself in the future.

Superfluous updates to change my vote. I didn't touch any wording of existing answer.

OK, I believe your words. So my conclusion is: This kind of buffer "directory" is a buffer that will be deleted immediately on BufWinLeave when it disappears from all of my tabpages. By "deleted" it means the data structure will be freed (so it's null, not just empty), correct?

| Jan 24, 2023 at 18:35 | comment | added | Matt | Your problem that you read very unattentively. The buftype option value is "nofile". "Directory" is "kind of", that is an informal explanation what that thing could be used for. It appears nowhere else. Also, I don't understand what is "a reference"? I tell what I know, and I know pretty much, when it comes to Vim, I dare say. | |

"when BufWinLeave event gets triggered": Do you have any reference for your words?

"Also, there's no "directory" buftype": Yes, there is. I'm using neovim and it's under the section :h special-buffers. The title of that manual is VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Bram Moolenaar.
