#59 CUnit Memory Leak

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm new using CUnit, but I think that or it has memory leaks, or I'm not using it in the right way.

To reproduce these leaks, i used this file:

// cunit.c
#include "CUnit/Basic.h"
#include "CUnit/Console.h"
#include "CUnit/Automated.h"

CU_ErrorCode test_debug(CU_pSuite suite);

int before_all(void){ return 0; }
int after_all(void){  return 0; }

void test_assert_equal(){
  CU_ASSERT_EQUAL(1, 1);
  CU_ASSERT_NOT_EQUAL(1, 2);
}

void test_assert_string_equal(){
  CU_ASSERT_STRING_EQUAL("1", "1");
  CU_ASSERT_STRING_NOT_EQUAL("1", "2");
}

CU_ErrorCode test_debug(CU_pSuite suite){
  suite = CU_add_suite("Simple test to check with Valgrind if CUnit has memory leaks", before_all, after_all);
  if(suite == NULL){
    CU_cleanup_registry();
    return CU_get_error();
  }

  if(
    ( CU_add_test(suite, "assert equal       ", test_assert_equal        ) == NULL ) ||
    ( CU_add_test(suite, "assert string equal", test_assert_string_equal ) == NULL )
  ){
    CU_cleanup_registry();
    return CU_get_error();
  }

  return CUE_SUCCESS;
}

int main(){
    CU_pSuite    suite = NULL;
    CU_ErrorCode status_code;

    if(CU_initialize_registry() != CUE_SUCCESS) return CU_get_error();

    status_code = test_debug(suite);
    if(status_code != CUE_SUCCESS) return status_code;

    CU_basic_set_mode(CU_BRM_VERBOSE);
    CU_basic_run_tests();
    CU_basic_show_failures(CU_get_failure_list());

    CU_cleanup_registry();

    return CU_get_error();
}

So, I compiled it:
gcc -g -lcunit -o test cunit.c -Wall

And executed with Valgrind:
valgrind --show-reachable=yes --tool=memcheck --leak-check=yes ./test 2>> valgrind.log

I had the following summary on valgrind.log:

LEAK SUMMARY:
   definitely lost: 80 bytes in 1 blocks
   indirectly lost: 116 bytes in 4 blocks
     possibly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
   still reachable: 41,831 bytes in 266 blocks
        suppressed: 16,861 bytes in 91 blocks

Am I doing something wrong here with CUnit or Valgrind, or CUnit has memory leaks?

I'm using:
Mac OX 10.8.5
CUnit stable 2.1-2 (installed with Homebrew)
Valgrind stable 3.9.0, HEAD (installed with Homebrew)

I know that Valgrind support on MacOS 10.8 is experimental... This bug is related to it?

I'm sending my valgrind.log as attachment.
