Re: FW: DOMDocument::importNode and memory leak on solaris
Anurag,
if the same code works on Linux, it could be that Solaris has a
different policy in releasing the memory. Xerces is not doing anything
special other than releasing the memory it allocated.

As both Alberto and Boris stated, this is not a leak. Solaris probably has
different memory caching algorithm for the C/C++ run-time heap.
Perhaps you should do some research on Sun's web site to see if there are
any system APIs that control this behavior.

Boris,
I corrected the missing delete []buf ; that you pointed out but that does not help on solaris as expected.
Alberto / Boris ,
Since there is an issue with this code on Solaris ? , can you suggest any alternative xerces APIs/code snippet to get the
same DOMDocument::importNode functionality that possibly will prevent the leak.
We are investigating the same.
Thanks for your quick replies . Your expert advice would be very helpful.
