WxGrid memory leak in wxpython2.7.1 and 2.8 on a dual core processor system

wxPython Dev

Hi,

I have been using wxpython
since its 2.4 version. The GUI in our application is implemented using wxgrid
which gets updated with values for every second with a timer. In the GUI,
wxGrid is added to a notebook, the notebook is then added to a panel and panel
is then added to a Main frame along with few other panels.

After executing for some
time the application is crashing with memory leak error in wxMsw28h_ADV_VC.dll

The error in the message
dialog is “so and so instruction referenced memory at so and so and the
memory could’nt be read or write”. After debugging, the stack is showing
memory problem in wxMsw28h_ADV_VC dll.

The problem remains same
with wx-python2.7 and also with wx-python2.8

This error is observed on
dual core processor system.

Os on my system is XP having
python 2.5

I would like to know whether
this is a problem due to dual core processor or a bug in wxGrid.

Thanks,

Gayatri

Without some sort of sample app that reproduces the problem it's a bit
difficult to draw whatever conclusion about this. Maybe the wxWidgets
gurus may be a bit more precise than me, but it's way too hard to shot
a suggestion in the dark without some code to play with. It's like
going to the car rapair guy and say: "The car is broken. Fix it." :smiley:
