<p class=MsoNormal>Hello everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve recently switched my application (Visual C++,
Visual Studio 2003) over to VTK5.0.0 and am getting huge memory leaks. When I
create a simple MFC dialog app and create/destroy a VTK object:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>vtkObject * ob = vtkObject::New();<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>ob->Delete();<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I also get huge number of memory leaks. So now I’ve
recompiled my VTK source with DEBUG_LEAKS turned ON. When I print out memory
leaks immediately before exiting the simple dialog app I get this:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>vtkDebugLeaks has detected LEAKS!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Class “vtkDebugLeaks” has 1 instance still
around.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Class “vtkObjectFactoryCollection” has 1
instance still around.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The 3<sup>rd</sup> line is what worries me, is this normal?
Obviously the vtkDebugLeaks object should still exist, but should the
vtkObjectFactoryCollection object be there? If both of these are normal, is it
possible that Visual Studio is giving me false positives? Is there something
possibly misconfigured? I can’t be the first/only person to switch from
VTK 4.4 to 5.0 while using VS 2003…. Has anyone else seen this????<o:p></o:p></p>
