installed all okay.
Thanks for the report.
Ran code below and watched memory in task manager diminish...
Running on Windows XP Professional SP2, Intel CPU (P4 2.4GHz), 1GB RAM...
Installed: ActivePerl 5.8.7 build 815, VC6++

But I can't duplicate the memory leak reported (perl 5.8.7 813,
Win32::GUI 1.03, win98 and win2k). Jez reports this as still happening
on WinXP - can anyone else duplicate a memory leak running this code:
This is looking like an XP thing at the moment. Can either of you
reduce the problem to something that doesn't need Win32::GUI? I.e. can
we find out if it's a window creation/deletion thing, or a perl thing?
Does it still leak if we only create a window (without the button)?
Can someone run this with a fixed number of iterations, and tell me how
much memory is leaked per iteration?
Is all the memory returned when the app exits?
I can confirm that I don't see this problem in win98, and will re-test
win2k tomorrow.
