Re: [jira] Closed: (AXISCPP-507) Memory leaks in deserialize methods of XSD classes (in src/soap/xsd)

Hi Adrian,
	Please go ahead and remove these sections.
	Once 515 is fixed, I will have a look back into memory leaks and see
how to fix this without breaking deserialization. I think that would be
the easiest thing to do.
	Once 515 is fixed and the test case is working, I can use the same test
case to check for memory leaks, so that we can be sure that the leak
fixes would not break functionality.

Thanks,
Samisa...
