Memory Issues [message #6358]

Question for PV-WAVE developers. We have some PV-WAVE legacy code which
basically loads images, allows users to 'enhance' the images, and displays
the image again. The application allows these actions to occur at the user's
choice. After several images, we get a memory error saying we are out of
display memory. I am checked the code to verify that we release the memory
(as a Computer Scientist, I would prefer a free(a) instead of setting an
array to 0 indicating the memory has been freed). If we close the applications
and start again, we have memory again.

Being somewhat familiar with UNIX and X windows, does it appear we are running
into 'c' memory issues or is something happening to the X windows display
memory?

I understand the images we import are large but if I release an image and reload
it, the system should be doing housekeeping on memory.

Thanks!!

Joe
