Dear all
I'd like to ask you question about memory leak in Webkit. Currently, I am using
QtWebkit self contained in Qt 4.8.0, and my test application is like follows:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QWebView* view = new QWebView();
view->load(QUrl("http://www.baidu.com"));
view->show();
a.exec();
delete view;
return 0;
}
As you know, Webkit provide RefCountedLeakCounter class to detect memory leak. When I run this test application in debug mode, I have noticed that many WebCoreNodes and CachedResource have leaked. This leak could be a big problem because we want to make use of WebKit in embedded device.
So, I'd like to ask you all whether this memory leak real or not? I just can't believe Webkit would leak memory in such a simple test, or if Webkit provides some other mechanism to ensure memory will not be leaked, please tell me.
Can anyone provide some information about this problem? I really appreciate your help.
Best Regards
Eric Chen
