Description Bernhard Beschow 2012-04-11 17:31:03 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0
Build Identifier: 

Once a plugin config dialog is requested from a plugin, it will consume memory until Marble is closed.

There are plugins which delete their config dialog when they get destroyed, while others never delete their config dialog. Given the long lifetime of a plugin, both could be seen as a memory leak.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open settings dialog
2. Navigate to the plugins section
3. Open various config dialogs
4. Close the settings dialog
Actual Results:  
All opened config dialogs will consume memory until Marble is closed.

Expected Results:  
Closed config dialogs should consume no memory.
