Hiya, I've been messing around in shaderhud.cpp and changing some stuff, and I've noticed that there's a file in my renegade directory called "memleak_shaders<number here>.log" containing some information I'm not sure what to make of. Could someone please help me fix what's going on?
I don't believe I have added anything to shaderhud.cpp that would even allocate any memory so I don't think that I've caused this problem with the code I've added.. It might be something I haven't thought about though..
I'm using Visual C++ Express 2008 to compile with btw, if that helps any.

Here's an except from one of the files:

Edit: Looks like its an error with my compiler(unless the normal shaders.dll has a mem leak) or something.. Sad

I just compiled a clean version of shaders.dll and it still has memory leaks.

Don't compile in debug mode if you don't want debugging files to be created at runtime... also your game will run a LOT faster if you use non-debug dll files.

As for the leaks, I wouldn't worry about it, it's probably just stuff that didn't get cleaned up properly at shutdown.

Yeah; I do like the debug information while I'm still working on my dll(I'm usually pretty careful but in case I forget to clean something up on my end).
Yeah, the memory leaks didn't seem like a big deal since its only 2-3 items that don't get deleted per instance of ren it seems. I was just wondering if anyone knew a fix. ^^
Thanks for the quick reply!
