Description Xavier Duret 2007-02-14 14:28:40 UTC 
Version:           svn 633141 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I ran valgrind on taglib in subversion. There are 2 importants leaks plus 2 less important leaks.
The importants leaks are:
- failure to delete the APETag in mpegfile.
- failure to delete the private object of UniqueFileIdentifierFrame.

There are less important leaks related to not freeing the factory objects used by taglib.

Memory leaks fix

Trivial patch.

In libtag_c (1.4.0) I'm also getting the following alloc / free mismatch

==18834== 1688 errors in context 19 of 19:
==18834== Thread 6:
==18834== Mismatched free() / delete / delete []
==18834==    at 0x4020937: operator delete[](void*) (in /usr/lib/valgrind/x86-linux/vgpreload_memcheck.so)
==18834==    by 0x48D9CDE: taglib_tag_free_strings (in /usr/lib/libtag_c.so.0.0.0)

coming from:
==18834==    at 0x4021384: malloc (in /usr/lib/valgrind/x86-linux/vgpreload_memcheck.so)
==18834==    by 0x4A5C01F: strdup (in /lib/libc-2.5.so)
==18834==    by 0x48D9B69: taglib_tag_artist (in /usr/lib/libtag_c.so.0.0.0)


Almost looks like strings allocated with strdup are getting freeed by delete []

The C bindings issue has already been fixed in SVN.
