Memory Usage Just Keeps on Increasing

[Dannybe2]

I have a problem with a program I'm writing.

I'm doing it in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET with c++ and using mysql to access a database.

The problem is the steadily increasing memory usage, which over time just keeps on going up.

I assume the problem is because I'm not freeing up memory somewhere. My question is this, is there any way in visual studio to find out which variables are not being released and so where all this memory is going?

I have tried just watching the variables as the program executes step by step, but everything looks like it has been freed up.

Thanks,
Dan

Hi Dan,

I'm not too clued up on the .NET version just yet but I know under VC++ 6.0 there is an MFC facility called CMemoryState which enables you to locate memory leaks.
