But, when I use fail in my simple example program, it returns NIL okay but the Heaptrace function tells me I have two unfreed memory blocks (36 bytes). I can't see a memory leak anywhere else in that program, what could cause this? (Heaptrace output is as follows: I am using FPC 1.0.6 btw) Heap dump by heaptrc unit 13 memory blocks allocated : 224/248 11 memory blocks freed : 188/208 2 unfreed memory blocks : 36 True heap size : 20000000 (64 used in System startup) True free heap : 19999792 Should be : 19999800 Call trace for block 0x0040AEA4 size 24 0x004051AF 0x00401ECC MYTESTCLASS__CREATE, line 13 of e:/projects/tests/classtst.pp 0x00401DC6 main, line 26 of e:/projects/tests/classtst.pp 0x00401059 Call trace for block 0x0040AEF4 size 12 0x00405176 0x00401ECC MYTESTCLASS__CREATE, line 13 of e:/projects/tests/classtst.pp 0x00401DC6 main, line 26 of e:/projects/tests/classtst.pp 0x00401059 > > _______________________________________________ > fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal > > _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
