Title: Memory leak in ConnectionNotify plugin
Post by: BigMike on 01 11 2014, 22:03:45

It seems, there is a memory leak in ConnectionNotify plugin 0.1.0.5 (Miranda NG 0.95.2 #9966 x64).
Miranda's private bytes set grows up to 300mb when Miranda is running for several hours. This doesn't happen, if the ConnectionNotify plugin is disabled.

The problem is still there with Miranda v0.95.3 build #11706 x64

Hm, interesting. We are regularly using Coverity (static code analyzer) and it doesn't report a leak in that plugin. Seems to be a bit more complicated. Can you make a bug report on the bug tracker?

EDIT: Forget it,  I think I found it.

EDIT2: I fixed some leaks, please test with #12455 (http://trac.miranda-ng.org/changeset/12455)

The problem seems to be gone with 0.95.4 #12462 x64. Or at least, it's much better now. Thank you.
I've been watching the process for almost an hour and the private bytes size stayed at a relative constant level.
Since in the new build, the ConnectionNotify plugin seems to be broken and to ignore all filter rules, I get masses of popups for connection notifications and (I think) therefore the used memory is going up and down all the time, but as I wrote, it stays on a constant level.

Fixed in 12470 (http://trac.miranda-ng.org/changeset/12470)

EDIT: Development version has been reuploaded.
