[orbitcpp-list] Memory leak warning

[Phil D. <ph...@us...>]

Hi All,

I've been fixing memory leaks over the last few weeks (there were
quite a few, both in ORBit and orbitcpp.

The upshot is that if you are likely to be using orbitcpp in a
long-running server capacity any time soon, you really need to use the
CVS versions of ORBit and orbitcpp.

Currently there remains 2 leaks AFAIK.

1: with transient objects using _add_ref() and _remove_ref(). 
-------------------------------------------------------------

This is because orbit-0.5 isn't calling the object finalizer, which
deals with the refcounting. (this works with ORBit-head and ORBit2 - I
will work with the orbit team to fix this.)

2: typecodes passed as inout parameters
---------------------------------------

I am investigating this now.



Cheers,

Phil
