[Quickfix-users] initiatoe->stop() Memory Leak

[William B. <wb...@UD...>]

Hi All,

I am developing a VS6 MFC Dialog-Based FIX application and I cannot get past a memory leak issue.  I have created a simple app to reproduce my problem.  The main Dialog creates the quickfix objects, including a UIThread which implements the quickfix app, on the heap as follows:

BOOL CQFTraderDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
    CDialog::OnInitDialog();

    m_pAppThread = (CTheAppThread*)AfxBeginThread(RUNTIME_CLASS(CTheAppThread),				       THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL, 0, CREATE_SUSPENDED);
    //perform thread initialization here...
    m_pAppThread->ResumeThread();

    settingsPtr = new FIX::SessionSettings("settings.txt");
    storeFactoryPtr = new FIX::FileStoreFactory( *settingsPtr );
    logFactoryPtr = new FIX::FileLogFactory( *settingsPtr );
    screenLogFactoryPtr = new FIX::ScreenLogFactory( true, true, true );
    initiatorPtr = new FIX::ThreadedSocketInitiator( *m_pAppThread, *storeFactoryPtr, *settingsPtr, *logFactoryPtr );
    return TRUE;
}

Then I click the "cancel" button, on the dlg, which executes:

void CQFTraderDlg::OnCancel() 
{
	  initiatorPtr->stop(true);
	  while( !initiatorPtr->isStopped() );
	  delete initiatorPtr;
	  
	  //delete screenLogFactoryPtr;
	  //delete logFactoryPtr;
	  //delete storeFactoryPtr;
	  //delete settingsPtr;
	  m_pAppThread->PostThreadMessage(WM_QUIT,0,0);
	
	CDialog::OnCancel();
}

Uncommenting the deletes above does not make a difference.  If the memory dump would be helpful, I can post it.  Clearly I am not cleaning up something correctly.

TIA,
