Description Martin Horák 2007-05-21 08:18:28 UTC 
Hello,

after calling the following two function

cairo_create;
cairo_destroy;

I encountered a memory leak 136 bytes long. The memory is allocated by function _cairo_pattern_create_solid for new pattern and when I call cairo_destroy() allocated memory is not freed, but the pointer is stored to static variable solid_pattern_cache. Is there any function to explicitly erase the cache or is it a bug?

Regards,
Martin

When performing leak checking, one can call cairo_debug_reset_static_data() but note the warnings in its documentation -- only call the function when you no longer hold any references to cairo objects.
