SFML 2.0 & Memory Leaks

[CBenni::O]

Hy,

I was playing a bit with the vld (Visual Leak Detector) and SFML, and this piece of Code (taken from the example Code) Throws 83 Memory Leaks!

Code: [Select]

#include <vld.h>
#include <SFML/Audio.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
// Create the main window
sf::RenderWindow App(sf::VideoMode(800, 600), "SFML window");
 
// Load a sprite to display
sf::Image Image;
if (!Image.LoadFromFile("cute_image.jpg"))
return EXIT_FAILURE;
sf::Sprite Sprite(Image);
 
// Create a graphical string to display
sf::Font Arial;
if (!Arial.LoadFromFile("arial.ttf"))
return EXIT_FAILURE;
sf::Text Text("Hello SFML", Arial, 50);
 
// Load a music to play
sf::Music Music;
if (!Music.OpenFromFile("nice_music.ogg"))
return EXIT_FAILURE;

// Play the music
Music.Play();
 
// Start the game loop
while (App.IsOpened())
{
// Process events
sf::Event Event;
while (App.GetEvent(Event))
{
// Close window : exit
if (Event.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
App.Close();
}
 
// Clear screen
App.Clear();
 
// Draw the sprite
App.Draw(Sprite);
 
// Draw the string
App.Draw(Text);
 
// Update the window
App.Display();
}
 
return EXIT_SUCCESS;

}

Whats the matter? Most of them appear to be inside of sf::Drawable...

It's highly probable that you applied the leak detector tool in a wrong way. You should get used to it, before you claim SFML.

I don't know what's exactly the problem. Apparently, VLD doesn't recognize all deallocations, for any reason. We've already had a similar issue, see here.

What have I done wrong, then? In the description of vld it only says that you simply have to add #include <vld.h> in the beginning of the file...

And usually it works :?

I'll try some more...

EDIT: If I take out everything which is related to sf::Text (creating and Drawing the String), there are no Memory-Leaks recorded
