I've made a program that uses TrueType fonts quite extensively. What I've noticed is
that the program is leaking memory. ALOT of memory. I traced it to the font loading.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this how it is supposed to be used:
DFBFontDescription font_dsc;
IDirectFBFont *font = NULL; // Our font
font_dsc.flags = DFDESC_HEIGHT;
font_dsc.height = 30;
DFBCHECK (dfb->CreateFont (dfb, "arial.ttf", &font_dsc, &font));
DFBCHECK (primary->SetFont (primary, font));
*** do something with the font, ie, draw stuff on screen :) ***
font->Release(font);
If you run this in a loop, the program will eventually fail to load the font, and
before it does, it will eat alot of memory.
Any comments are welcomed...
