Re: [Rlib-users] Memory leaks in RLib 1.3.5 / RLib CVS Version(s) libxml2 calls?! HELP!!!

[Bob D. <bd...@si...>]

The easiest thing to do is valgrind it.  That usually will tell you
where the problem is.  If you can run it from the command line you can
probably get it to core dump, and then you can inspect that w/ gdb.

Also try RLIB 1.3.6 to see if it fixes it.

http://www.sicom.com/~bdoan/rlib-1.3.6.tar.gz (I uploaded a fresh copy
today w/ some more fixes - one was a core dump when using "eval")
