General discussions / SFML 1.6 suspection for memory leak

« on: August 16, 2010, 10:07:04 pm »

Hi, I'm new here, and I must say SFML is awesome! Very cool and simple, good job sfml developer!

However I suspect that there might be a memory leak in one of the modules.
I used QtCreator with Mingw on Window7, here is some relevant data that might help:

C:\MinGW\bin>"mingw32-g++.exe" -v
Reading specs from ../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.5/specs
Configured with: ../gcc-3.4.5-20060117-3/configure --with-gcc --with-gnu-ld --wi

e-hash-synchronization --enable-libstdcxx-debug
Thread model: win32
gcc version 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)

Here is the code I compiled in debug and linked to:
libsfml-system-d.a libsfml-window-d.a libsfml-graphics-d.a

Code: [Select]


#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    // Create the main window
    sf::Window App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600, 32), "SFML Events");

    App.SetFramerateLimit(60);

    // Start main loop
    while (App.IsOpened())
    {
        // Process events
        sf::Event Event;
        while (App.GetEvent(Event))
        {
            // Close window : exit
            if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
                App.Close();

            // Escape key : exit
            if ((Event.Type == sf::Event::KeyPressed) && (Event.Key.Code == sf::Key::Escape))
                App.Close();
        }

        // Display window on screen
        App.Display();
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}


The memory started with 9500K, jumped to 10500K then to 12000K then 13000k and then I stopped to monitor
Anyway I would like to hear some official reply on this one. If you need any other information (drivers information or what so ever) feel free to ask, Ill be happy to help

Have a good day,
skwee.
