Hi folks,
Valgrind 3.3 is being mainly used to track memory leak, unfortunately,
it doesn't catch memory allocated by the macro AXIS2_MALLOC, probably
due to the fact that it uses a function pointer. Modifying the three
macro as follows solves this problem and memory leaks can be finally
detected during development.
If we remove the function pointers as you suggest, it eliminates our
design goal with function pointers. We used those function pointers in
order to use other memory handling mechanisms other than malloc. As an
example we use apr_pools underneath in mod_axis2 memory
handling. Other thing is malloc may not be portable across different
platforms.
Therefore I don't think it is a good idea to remove those function
pointers.
thanks,
Dinesh
The changes I propose must not be commit to subversion, it is just a
kludge for this valgrind bug. However, this change can used only during
development to catch memory leak.
