PRTG Catches Network Issues Before They Cause Downtime

Threshold-based alerts flag problems early, so your team can act before users notice, not after.

Reactive troubleshooting usually means hearing about a problem from frustrated users, not your monitoring tool. PRTG sets threshold-based alerts across devices, servers and applications, notifying your team by email, SMS or push the moment a metric crosses a set limit. That means catching a failing disk or overloaded server before it becomes an outage and getting time back from firefighting. Start a free trial and set your first alerts today.

Nice job! Do not forget to check if row exists before delete it in CsvParser_destroy_row(). Otherwise I've got SEGFAULT with your example.

For user `cppfed` : Problem fixed by changing "getHeader()" to return const pointer - only CsvParser destructor has the right to free the header. For user `qghi` : The memory leak issue was fixed in the one of the former releases

Memory leak in void CsvParser_destroy_row(CsvRow *csvRow) Must be void CsvParser_destroy_row(CsvRow *csvRow) { ... free(csvRow->fields_); free(csvRow); }
