Hey wait a minute. Where did you get the my_free(), may be you are trying to say mysql_free(), but then that is used only if result set is used/called.
But the code does not show any result set call. ie. mysql_use_result() or mysql_store_result().
So, the question now, how come there is a leak here. I dont see any, does anyone see any?

I have the following code:
//try the mysql connection
mysql_init(&mysql_connection);
if(!mysql_real_connect(&mysql_connection, db_host, db_user, db_pass,
db_db, 0, NULL, 0)) {
flockfile(stderr);
fprintf(stderr, "%s: Failed to connect to database: Error: %s\n", timestamp, mysql_error(&mysql_connection));
funlockfile(stderr);
mysql_close(&mysql_connection);
return(2);
}
mysql_close(&mysql_connection);
This code is creating a memory leak. Am I missing some cleanup calls? I'm
under the impression all I should need to do is call mysql_close to clean up
the connection? I'm testing this using mtrace, if I place a return directly
above the code segment it reports no leaks, if I place it direcly below the
fragment there are several variables reported as not being freed. Any
ideas?
