Hi everybody,
I have a problem with Python/C API and memory management.
I'm using
Python 2.3.5 (#1, Jan 4 2006, 16:44:27)
[GCC 4.0.2 20050901 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)] on linux2
In my C-module I have a loop like this:
***********************************************
int size=10000000;
output=(double *) calloc(size, sizeof(double));
py_output=PyList_New(0);
for(i=0; i<size; i++){
tmp=PyFloat_FromDouble(output[i]);
PyList_Append(py_output, tmp);
}
free(outout);
return py_output;
***********************************************
It returns to python module a (very large) list.
Problem: when I delete the list in python module (with python del statement)
not all memory is relased.
It look like all 10000000 tmp PyFloat allocated in C code
remain stored in memory.
Somebody can help me?
Thanks.
marco
