It seems to have some memory leak in vs2013

[aricatamoy]

I use log4cplus-master in my project, and use

_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CRTDBG_REPORT_FLAG) | _CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF);

to check whether it exists memory leak.

I have recently fixed a leak in loggingserver. Is that it?

If it is different leak, what is your configuration? How do you use log4cplus? How do I reproduce the leak? How big is the leak? Please provide some details.

The code is here:

#include "log4cplus/initializer.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    _CrtSetDbgFlag(_CrtSetDbgFlag(_CRTDBG_REPORT_FLAG) | _CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF);
    log4cplus::Initializer test_initializer;
    return 0;
}

I use log4cplus-master, edit the *.vcxproj file, replace "v140" to "v120" to compile it in my vs2013. It reports memory leaks. It's possibly cause by stringhel

Here is the output:

Detected memory leaks!

Leaks like this have been reported few times already. Unless this leak actually accumulates during longer run time, I do not think it is an issue. I think the problem is that the leaks reporting routine runs before the memory is actually deallocated. There is some thread-local storage that gets freed only at the very end of threads execution or process execution.

ok, thank you very much.
