[Valgrind-users] interpreting valgrind report.

[Wayne X. <way...@ho...>]

Hi,

I have a question regarding the "definitely lost" leaks. What is the "loss
record" and does the whole report have a single sequence of "loss record"?
If you look at the following segments from the report. The 2nd and 3rd both
are from "loss record 21". However, the PID is different. I'm wondering if
they're one leak reported twice, or 2 instances of a leak happening at
different times (and in different processes)? Any help would be appreciated.
