Can you try running with validation turned off and without setting your custom error handler?

Dear David Bertoni,

Thanks for the suggestion. I removed the 'new' call from my code and created the object of membuf and XercesDOMParser as you suggested but still there is a memory leak. After the analysis of the process log I saw that the memory leak is happening when I am calling "m_domParser->parse(membuf);". I guess the memory allocated while parsing is not getting released.
Can you suggest me the different ways to release the memory allocated with 
parsing? To be of safer side I am calling the following after the 'parse' 
function -

DOMDocument*    m_doc;

m_doc = m_domParser->adoptDocument();

if (m_domParser!=0)
{
        m_domParser = 0;
}

if(m_doc!=0)
        {
                m_doc->release();
                delete m_doc;
                m_doc = 0;
}


But this is not helping at all and memory is leaking like it used to be earlier.


Thanks,
Abhinav Kishore

Hi,

Does that mean I don't have to create the parser and membuf objet with 'new'?? 
If not then how should I create it? In my application the same process receives 
request for xml parsing at different times. Each time I am creating a new 
object of parser and then deleting it too.
You can create them on the stack:

MemBufInputSource membuf(
     (const XMLByte*)theString.data(),
     theString.size(),
     "APIXMLInterface",
     false);

XercesDOMParser localParser;

m_domParser = &localParser;

...

m_domParser = 0;

Although I don't know if that will help much, since the parser will allocate memory dynamically regardless.

Also, I checked my process giving it a bad input. In that case the process gets core dump releasing all the memory acquired.
Why does your application core dump on bad input? The parser shouldn't do that.

None of your evidence proves the Xerces-C library is leaking memory. I suggest you test the parser code outside of your application to verify if there is a memory leak.
