I always get the memory leak trace at the end of this post when I run a trivial application that uses boost threads (source below). I can confirm that this happens with boost 1_33_1 and dissapears with
Hi Tom the current version from CVS (named 1_35 there, don't know anything about 1_34 thought). I am running vc8 and/or vc7.1. with 1_33_1 the leak looks like this: --------- Block 98 at 0x008B9C40: 24 bytes ---------- Call Stack: f:\vs70builds\6030\vc\crtbld\crt\src\newop.cpp (12): operator new c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\mutex.inl (55): `anonymous namespace'::new_critical_section c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\mutex.cpp (48): boost::mutex::mutex c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\tss_hooks.cpp (29): `anonymous namespace'::init_threadmon_mutex c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\once.cpp (174): boost::call_once c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\tss_hooks.cpp (150): on_thread_exit c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\thread.cpp (117): thread_proxy f:\vs70builds\6030\vc\crtbld\crt\src\threadex.c (241): _threadstartex 0x77E6608B (File and line number not available): GetModuleFileNameA Data: 18 4A 14 00 FF FF FF FF 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .J...... ........ 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........ ........ ---------- Block 97 at 0x008B9BF8: 8 bytes ---------- Call Stack: f:\vs70builds\6030\vc\crtbld\crt\src\newop.cpp (12): operator new c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\tss_hooks.cpp (29): `anonymous namespace'::init_threadmon_mutex c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\once.cpp (174): boost::call_once c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\tss_hooks.cpp (150): on_thread_exit c:\devlibs\boost_1_33_1\libs\thread\src\thread.cpp (117): thread_proxy f:\vs70builds\6030\vc\crtbld\crt\src\threadex.c (241): _threadstartex 0x77E6608B (File and line number not available): GetModuleFileNameA Data: 40 9C 8B 00 01 CD CD CD @....... ........ --------- Cheers Amanjit
