Recently I have started studying about memory leaks in C++, so I may ask a naive questions.
I have a c++ library that is using OpenSSL - my task is to check if there are memory leaks in this lib. I have run Visual Leak Detector to check mem leaks.
I see that the calls to SSL_library_init(); and SSL_load_error_strings(); are leading leak - quick googling is showing that at the end of usage I have to call the followings:
CONF_modules_free();
ERR_remove_state(0);
ENGINE_cleanup();
CONF_modules_unload(1);
ERR_free_strings();
EVP_cleanup();
CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data();
The leak indeed decreased, but still there are two leaks(that the VLD tool shows me) that happen because the SSL_library_init call.
does anyone know what else I have to do in order to free all the mem leaks?
