After updating app, do I need to delete/re-add widgets?

I have Pure Calendar on my home screen, and that widget has frequent updates. Do I need to delete the widget and re-add it every time Market downloads and installs an update?

Thanks.
 
I can't speak to that particular app, but I've not had to delete/re-add a widget for any update I've downloaded so far.
 
Unless you're having problems with the application or widget (as in, it keeps force closing or wont let the phone sleep thus draining your battery) then there is no need to delete/re-install the widgets after an update. The update seemlessly updates the application that's already on there. Luckily, this isnt like a Windows XP machine where you have to restart for the installation/update to take effect :P And dont worry, you wont be having multiple applications to worry about. They install/update right overtop of the previous version.
