Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. compile and run the attached example 2. 3. Actual results: leaks memory with gtk version gtk2-2.10.4-8.fc6 Expected results: doesn't leak memory Additional info:
Created attachment 144477 [details] example of memory leak
I don't see any leak here ? Have you tried running under valgrind, to get an idea what may be leaked ?
Created attachment 145294 [details] valgrind output Here's the output of valgrind on my system... it doesn't continuously print any memory errors, but the memory usage does go up forever and valgrind does report some lost bytes.
I'm wondering if this is the same as bug 222260. David L, you should run your valgrind with --leak-check=yes
I tried running valgrind with --leak-check=yes and didn't see any difference. The memory usage reported by top is still increasing but I don't see additional errors reported by valgrind after the initial few. By the way, somebody on the gtk mailing list reproduced this bug with the fc6 version of gtk but said it didn't happen with the latest non-redhat gtk.
I'm going to assume this was the same as bug 222260 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 222260 ***
