There will be no "Refcount decreased" entry for A's StatePtr because Thread A of my application can't destroy the corresponding Material immediately since a removal of it just results in a decreased RefCount (from 2 to 1) and an entry to the changelist. So, the material will be destroyed during a synchronisation where the call Changelist::applyAndClear() will finally delete it. However, this applyAndClear call locks the current (Thread B's) Changelist to readonly! So the StatePtrs of each aspect of the Material will decrease by one as explained in my previous mail but without adding these decreases to the changelist. By the way, even if it would do that, I don't apply the changes made in Thread B to Thread A. (At least not yet.) > not putting the ref count changes into the changelist may be the right > thing for State objects in Material, but if there are other places it is > used the situation might be different. I used the xxxCacheRefCP calls for those CachePtrs only and within the State class itself. This State class is the only part I am not sure about. Where reside StatePtrs and access to methods of them in OpenSG? Is there any situation in which the aspects of a state will be synchronised? I might should remove the xxxCacheRefCP functions from the State class and ensure proper beginEditCP and endEditCP calls instead to enforce the synchronisation of those aspects but I would prefer not to since one of the aspects will never be used. > hm, one thing that depends much more on the changelist than multiple > threads on one machine is the cluster code, so there is a possibility it > is broken with the changes. I see but shouldn't the memory leaks then also affect the cluster code?
