Dear all, Downloading and using the 1.32 version was probably not such a good idea... Now I get a mem-leak reported by the debug crt of VC 7.1. The report is located in 'init_threadmon_mutex' where a global object is allocated but never deleted. Before we start a discussion of what is a memory leak or not, in our production code we do not accept any leak reported by VC. The past has learned us that if you accept one leak, programmers/colleaques start to ignore them and in the end you have 200 leaks, instead of this one. I guess it wouldn't be difficult to resolve this one, on process exit it can be deallocated. And yes I am aware of the (phoenix) singleton discussions in Alexandrescu/Meyers, but really this kind of reinit of singletons after atexit calls won't happen too much. Wkr, me
