a memory leak, that is another matter. (Can I turn off emulator error
detection for this case?)

Subject: Is this a "memory leak" that I want to keep?
> I find myself facing one, last memory leak indicated by the emulator to be
tied to a record creation function within a database. Of course, if this is
merely a matter of the emulator identifying that I am allocating memory to a
couple of records and not releasing it back to the system, and calling that
a memory leak, that is another matter (although I'd like to know if I can
such the detection of this error off for this case).
