Hi list,

I added the unit Heaptrc to my program and there seem to be memory leaks that i cannot find.
Then I tried to build an "empty" application to see when I introduced the leaks, however even the following "empty" application seems to have memory leaks.
To reproduce, just create a new application, add Heaptrc to the uses clause and run.
I get 64 unfreed blocks.

Can anyone help to understand why?

Thanks,

Roberto

You should add the heaptrc add as first unit to the main program (or let the compiler do that by compiling with -gh).

heaptrc must be the first unit in the .lpr file as it is more or less a memory manager.

To simplify do not add heaptrc to the uses clause, use the appropiate setting in the compiler -> linker page of your project.

If you do not show the 64 leaks it would be difficult to track them down.

thanks all
I was pretty sure it was a misunderstanding of mine.
