Hi there,
I'm stumbling over some memory leaks reported by MSVC when using
boost::filesystem. Here is simple code sample that can reproduce the
output below:
#define _CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC
#include
#include
#define BOOST_FILESYSTEM_VERSION 3
#include
namespace fs = boost::filesystem;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
fs::path my_path( "C:\\bla.dat" );
_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks();
return 0;
}
-- Output:

'C:\gil_contributions\solutions\vc10\test\x64\Debug\test.exe', Symbols
loaded.

Object dump complete.
The program '[1860] test.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Is this a known issue/nonissue? I have a test suite that uses
boost::filesystem in numerous areas and the output is somewhat
disturbing to me.

Christian
