------------------------------------
Summary: Avro-C: Memory Leak in avro_schema_record() (was: Avro-C)
> Avro-C: Memory Leak in avro_schema_record()
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AVRO-1161
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1161
> Project: Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: c
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1
> Reporter: Lucas Martin-King
> Labels: memory_leak
>
> There seems to be a bug in the use of avro_schema_record() within the
> datafile reader. I'm currently investigating this myself, and can hopefully
> submit a patch soon, however I am wondering if there is anything I am
> forgetting to do when using the Avro API?
> Our program is opening and closing lots of log files, and Valgrind gives me
> this message:
> ==20151== 32,518 (48 direct, 32,470 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are
> definitely lost in loss record 62 of 65
