memory leaks with xloadct? [message #33481] Wed, 08 January 2003 11:14

Hi,

I have been using XLOADCT in a widget program and I ran into a problem
with leaking memory. When I run XLOADCT in a widget program where the
top-level base of the widget program is the group leader for XLOADCT,
quitting the widget program while XLOADCT is running SHOULD be
seamless. However I consistently have leaking memory with the
following in the output log:

<PtrHeapVar391904>
STRUCT = -> WIDGET_BUTTON Array[1]

A short program illustrating this is listed below. To reproduce this,
run the program, press the button labeled "change colors", then press
the "quit" button on the widget program while XLOADCT is still
running. Then there should be a pointer to a structure leftover. Do
others get the same leaking memory?

Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Rob

P.S. I am aware (and often use) XCOLORS by David Fanning in my widget
programs but I DO have a reason for using XLOADCT in this particular
case.
