How do you fix a memory leak where you're returning from the function the leak itself?
For example, I make a char* returnMe = new char[24324]; returnMe is what ends up getting returned from the function. How do you account for this memory leak? How do...

I'm loading some fairly big data sets in to firefox (500 k or so) and drawing tables with them. Firefox is using up to 400 megs of memory. How can I tell if Firefox is leaking memory, or is just using a lot of memory just because it can?
Is there another...

I have the following function in C++
void func1() { char *p = "Test for memory leak"; }
When func1() is called where is the memory for the variable allocated? Whether in the stack or the heap? Should delete p; be called explicitly?

If you look at the compiled code the string Test for memory leak\0 is actually to the statically allocated string "Test for memory leak" .
There is no memory leak at all.

Hi all,
I'm working on tracking down some difficult to find memory leaks in my iPhone program. I'm running a quick test on an app which leaks an NSString object with the following intentionally -incorrect- code:

To find memory leaks of this type, use the debugger to put crawl and see what piece of code caused the leak.
As a result of calls to that framework.

First I realize that leaks can fragment memory badly, but please bear with me.
Using WinDbg and attaching to a process: Using !heap (or another WinDbg command), what should I expect see if I'm dealing with memory fragmentation as opposed to a leak? For...

MS Description heaps, or failures to load DLLs, the latter could cause memory allocation failures in calls to new.

What tells you there is a memory leak?
May I ask, why you chose to create your own.
If you write programs on c++ - use new/delete instead malloc leaking any memory.
I don't see memory leak in this code.
