Yes, my memory leak was not about allocated blocks but r

Ah OK, I see what you mean. So does profilers like valgrind detect those?

You sometimes get loads of output highlighting several memory leaks. The
backtrace information doesn't always lead tot he exact location where
the memory leak was caused. That's the "hit and miss" I mentioned.
Sometimes the backtrace is correct and s

What do you mean?

It works only for memory allocated by the fpc heap manager, so a winapi CreateWindow
call, or a gtk gtk_button_new call would create an undetected memory leak, if the
returned handle/pointer is not release properl

It does not detect memory leaks stemming from memory not allocated via
FPC code. A lot of Mac OS X framework routines return pointers that
you have to retain/release in a balanced way.

As Jonas mentioned, profilers do not detect memory leaks, but rather the
performance (speed) of your code.

Profilers don't detect memory leaks. Profilers detect which code is
executed (a lot) by the program.

Ah, but I found ObjectAlloc, which seams to work, thanks a lot =)
