 		Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page   

Register an expected memory leak.

 

Unit

EMemLeaks

 

Syntax

 

Code (Delphi)

function EurekaRegisterExpectedMemoryLeak(

P: Pointer

): Boolean;

 

Parameters

P [in]

A pointer to memory block of expected leak.

 

Return value

Indicate if leak was registered successfully. A False value usually indicate that this block was already registered.

 

Remarks

This function registers a particular memory block to be excluded from memory leaks report. This feature can be used to skip reporting for "leaks by design" or for bugs in 3rd party code over which you have no control.

 

This function is used to exclude already allocated blocks. Thus, this function is usually used to register leaks from 3rd party code. To register expected leaks in your own code - you can use either this function or DisableMemLeaksRegistering function.

 

Tip

While it is usually not needed, but you can call EurekaUnregisterExpectedMemoryLeak function to unregister memory block from excluded leaks.

 

Important!

You must pass a pointer to the beginning of the memory block. Please note that dynamic arrays and strings do not point to the beginning of allocation. Use EurekaRegisterExpectedMemoryLeakDynArray and EurekaRegisterExpectedMemoryLeakStr for dynamic arrays and strings instead of this function.
