Memory leak in wxHashTableBase2::AllocTable

[zobbo]

Hi,

I've found a memory leak in my application and traced it back to wxWidgets framework. Even when none of my code is running I get this leak every time. I had to convert the VC++ solution to VS2012. I corrected the target names (which the conversion broke) and set it to statically link multi-threaded debug, as is my project that imports wxwidgets. The leak breaks at the first return here in hashmap.h when I set a breakpoint at IMPLEMENT_APP_CONSOLE(MyApplication)

Code: Select all

static void** AllocTable( size_t sz )
    {
        return (void **)calloc(sz, sizeof(void*));
    }
    static void FreeTable(void *table)
    {
        free(table);
    }
};

I discovered that a second leak comes from xti.cpp:

Code: Select all

void wxTypeInfo::Register()
{
    if ( ms_typeTable == NULL )
        ms_typeTable = new wxTypeInfoMap();

    if( !m_name.empty() )
        (*ms_typeTable)[m_name] = this;
}

The first allocation here causes the second leak.

I had set wxUSE_EXTENDED_RTTI 1 and rebuilt the libraries. When I set this back to 0 the memory leak disappears. Just thought I better mention it.

This is on wxWidgets 2.9.4 Debug build.

Cheers,
Zobbo
