Infuriatingly, it just started to work this morning. I added a couple of CodeSite messages to check on a couple of things and everything sprung in to life. Don't you just hate it when that happens !!!

I have a delphi console app (script engine) which has leak detecting enabled. This app runs a script written by the end user. I have a second delphi app (WebServer) that can either be run as a GUI app or as a service. The WebServer app, calls the script engine app (using CreateProcess). If the scrip...

Ah, seems this does what I want

I'd like to use leak detecting in my Command line delphi app, outputting the leak info to a file (in a specific folder) rather than a GUI. If this possible please ?

Cheers

David

FYI

Changing the initial chunk size to 25 MB cured the AV.

Hi
Actually in this case only 160 MB

lChunkSize := File_Stream.Size;

The 1GB limit is for stupid sized files.

I'll try and reduce the size when leak checking to see if that addresses the issue, assuming there's no way to turn off leak checking for a specific method ?

David

The following code causes an AV in Madexcept32.dll I've tried calling MadExcept.StopLeakChecking before this routine, but it makes no difference (turning off leak checking completely lets the code runs fine) . Any suggestions ? lNoMem := true; if File_Stream.Size > high(Integer) then lChunkSize := 1...

Thanks.

Could I do that before the leak report is displayed or do you mean doing something afterwards ?

Cheers

Is there anyway to hide a leak based on the callstack AND the size ? I'm currently hiding this leak madexcept.HideLeak('VirtualAllocCallback|TnxMemoryStream.msRealloc'); but the scenarios where it's a false positive are where the leak is exactly 4096 bytes. If it's any more or any less then I need t...

Odd. Fixed a few real leaks and now this leak is showing ... Computers eh?!

I've added the following code to my form, but it's not showing up as a leak (other leaks are). What might be wrong ? procedure TMainGUI_Form.FormShow(Sender: TObject); var lLeakCheckList : TStringlist; begin lLeakCheckList := TStringList.Create; lLeakCheckList.Add('Expect to see this leak'); showmes...

Thanks

I'm sure this should be obvious, but I can't work out how to turn on leak detection when building via the command line compiler. Is it just sufficient to add the LeakChecking conditional define ?

Maybe it would make sense to add a try..except block to catch the "The operation could not be completed in the allotted time" exception and handle it more nicely? and that has made me realise what the error actually is. There is an exception handler and it's in that exception handler that...

Using MadExcept V5 + Delphi Sydney. A user just sent me the following Madexcept report, asking how could we have created a situation where a database wasn't initialised correctly. Looking at the report I can see that although the TDataset is reporting Dataset not in edit or insert mode , really the ...
