Description
There are memory leaks in the SWIG interface files (both Ruby and Python). It seems to be caused by the code of the typemaps.
In Gonzalo Garramuño's opinion, "malloc/memcpy should not be used. That memory allocated by malloc is afaik never being released (and cannot be released sanely by a ruby free_func as it was allocated as block)."

Seems to be fixed for Ruby. See http://drqueue.org/cwebsite/drqueue_community/comments.php?DiscussionID=493 for progress on this bug.

- Resolution set to fixed
I closing this ticket because only the Python bindings seem to be affected.
See ticket #43 for more information.

fixed)
That's not a resolution for Python, I guess. As long as there are Python bindings, bug should not be marked as fixed if it's not fixed for them.
I'd like to know more opinions regarding the memory allocation issue (regarding Python) as I share the feeling of it being caused by the fact of being allocated as a block and not individually.
I do not know how to do it properly and would like to know to make it right.

If it doesn't affect Ruby, as kaazoo is taking care of Ruby I'll take care. G-d's willing.
#5 Updated by Andreas Schröder almost 10 years ago
OK. This ticket depends on ticket #43. Sadly Trac doesn't seem to support bug dependencies.
So we will close this one when the other ticket is fixed.

Python memory leak ticket is closed.
Ruby bindings seem to not be affected.
Will close this ticket for now until new memory leaks in the bindings are found.
