Alexander Rojas updated MESOS-2418:
-----------------------------------
Description:
In MESOS-2412 a memory leak was found because of a missing {{delete}}.
Forgetting to free memory is a common error while manually managing memory. In
order to prevent this issue from happening again, another strategy should be
used to handle buffers.
Among the options there are {{std::vector<char>}},
{{std::unique_ptr<char\[\]>}}, or {{boost::scoped_array<char>}}.
was:
As a follow up to MESOS-2412 where we a discussed to introduce another
datastructure for buffer mangement instead of using raw pointers.
This would make memory management more robust and reduce the potential for
future memleaks (as in MESOS-2412).
> Remove raw pointers from stout/os.hpp
