[Gambas-devel] Gambas Memory leak ... (?!)

[Gareth Bult]

Ok,

I have 1 camera that will run with V4L or V4L2, so I've unplugged the V4L2 only camera and am forcing the device create for "V4L", and verifying that it's actually using V4L. It's definitely on the V4L interface, and still leaking memory like there's no tomorrow.

Gareth.

Do you use gb.qt or gb.gtk for displaying things?
