But is the memory freed at some point? E.g. when
program shuts down? If it is not freed ever, then it
is a memory leak. I'm interested in this, because
either you have a memory leak or these is a bug in
another application called cppcheck which claims that
you have a memory leak. But if it is too difficult to
find out, I won't bother you about this anymore as it
is most likely a minor issue if even that.
