Hi, What is the correct way to use TRawImage.PerformEffect? Simply doing: Image1.Picture.Bitmap.RawImage.PerformEffect(someeffect) will lead to memory loss, due to a getmem() call in PerformEffect.
Without looking at the context I tried freeing the memory allocated by getmem by using freemem inside the PerformEffect method. (You can see this "fix" in the attached patch in http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=21068 ) Now Image1.Picture.Bitmap.RawImage.PerformEffect(someeffect) doesn't leak memory anymore, but after rebuilding Lazarus the IDE crashes (at least on Win7). Undoing my "fix" and rebuilding Lazarus with -gh shows that Lazarus does not leak memory, even after numerous calls to TRawImage.PerformEffect (made by TImageList). So either this simple Image1.Picture.Bitmap.RawImage.PerformEffect(someeffect) is plain wrong usage, or TImageList does something special to avoid this memory leak? (I looked at the sources of TImageList but I'm obviously not clever enough to see the solution.) Can someone shed some light on this?
