Dear all,
I had a memory leak in my app that I traced to
a delegate variable. Something like this:
class X {
delegate void Delegate ();
Delegate d;
public void xx () {
d = () => { do_stuff ();};
}
}
Given the above, the following will leak memory:
{
new X(). xx ();
}
I think this is because there is an unavoidable
reference cycle between d and the X object. Is
this correct? If not, then it may be a vala bug.
I can fix the memory leak by setting d to null
before the X object gets unreffed (this makes
it sound like a vala bug).
Nice day
