Date: Wed, 07 Jul 2004 17:46:00 -0000 X-SW-Source: 2004/txt/msg00084.txt.bz2 I have an application that is cross-platform. The application uses threads. It runs nicely in Linux, unix and MAC and shows no memory leaks under Valgrind. I tried running the application on Windows. I used the Posix threads for Windows. The application runs fine but is constantly leaking memory (can see it in the task manager). Memory detectors such as Boundschecker and HeapAgent are not reporting any leaks. The application runs about a day, uses up all memory and crashes. I am linking pthreadVC.dll into my application and using MSVC++ on Windows XP. Any help would be appreciated.
