Memory leak on unix but not windows
The Boost classes I use only require the headers - so no precompiling - I'm using the latest version of boost - 1.34.1. -
Memory leak on unix but not windows
Hi again guys, I have some more info - I decided to use boost's shared_ptr on my token objects, but still a memory leak (on unix) - here's the output from the memory tool with Valgrind: 14,659,544 bytes in 17 blocks are still reachable in loss record 19 of 19 ==27212== at 0x4A19257... -
Memory leak on unix but not windows
I'm just using new and delete (where possible I always use the c++ functions / library) - I compile with -DNDEBUG and -O3, but I've tried changing the flags with no success. -
Memory leak on unix but not windows
As far as I know there are no platform specific pieces of code. I do use inheritance on those "Token" objects that I was talking about - I use virtual destructors - in this program I actually only create derived objects, and thus delete the derived objects. -
Memory leak on unix but not windows
Sorry, I was a bit vague: It's just a standard "console" application i.e. there's no gui stuff. I recompile on unix using g++. I use mainly stl, but I do use the string class from boost. The application is a speech recogniser - it works by passing thousands of "tokens" around a network - I'm... -
Memory leak on unix but not windows
Hi, I have an app (C++) that runs on windows fine, and all memory appears to be released correctly (by observing the mem usage in Windows Task Manager). When I run the same app on Unix / Linux, the memory does not release properly, and eventually goes on to the disk. Is this a problem people...
