I've just downloaded another 2 mysql manuals and have been sit on my chair all day reading them, but still do not reach the join usage, I hope tomorrow... > Have you checked that you free the correct result ? set it to NULL > after used, and add a test for nullity, it may help. > What version of the API are you using ? which OS ? > Have you check bugs.mysql.com ? It is Linux Slackware 10.1 with MySQL 4.1.4 installed from source... I have tested it too (same program and same version of MySQL) with FreeBSD and the result is almost the same, the difference is that Linux craches with glib message and in FreeBSD just sends a warning that the results have been already free... I suspect that the current version of MySQL frees the resources automatically, in FreeBSD the warning was more explicit, it said something like "trying to free again a result chunk"... this one performed a single query and a single result_free() so there was no place for a mistake... > That would leave a nice memory leak indeed... > eventually, recompile and set a break-point before calling mysql_free, > and look at all variables. MySQL internal variables? to see the status before? that's a good idea, I will do it, thanks for your comments and will post it as soon as I get results :-) Regards P.S.
