Re: [femm] Memory Leak?



Hi all,

I noted the same problem also in W98SE, but not in W2K.
By some reason Femm seems to work fine there.

Regards, Juan

Yes this sounds exactly like the problem I have too with Femm 3.1.   Similar effects on NT4 as well as ME and Win98.   I mentioned the problem a few months back to David, and he seemed to think that it may be a memory leakage within Lua somewhere, but I haven't heard anything more about it and have learned to live with it so far...

Subject: [femm] Memory Leak?

I'm using Femm3.2 and I'm having some problems that look like memory
leaks.
I have the following lua batch:

loop round dozens of times doing the following
  open a fem file
  make some small alterations
  send some data to a text file
  call the post processor (this routine does some integrals and then
exits the post processor)
  delete the temp files
  go back around the loop

After a number of iterations (say 100-300) the femm editor hangs up
along with a slow down of the rest of the operating system (out of
memory errors while opening notepad etc)
The OS is Windows ME and it is a relatively new machine with about
256mb.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?  Is there anyway to make sure the
editor closes off one file before opening another?

Thanks and regards
Guy
