New subject: The Memory leak occurs with intrusive_ptr<T> and a class which containing wstring member variable.

3 Dec 2007


      Hello everyone. I had met a memory leak error runnnin program generated
from a source which is attached to this mail.
[flow]
--The "sampleclass"-class has a wstring object as a member variable and
a setter and a getter for this variable.
--A sampleclass instance generated by the default new.
--A pointer to sampleclass instance attached to intrusive_ptr<sampleclass>.
--Make wstring instance with string L"0123456789abcdef".
--The wstring instance set to a sampleclass instance using the
sampleclass's setter.
--Finish this program and a memory leak occurs.

}

The Memory leak occurs with intrusive_ptr<T> and a class which containing wstring member variable.
