c++ - 如何解决据报告驻留在 STL 字符串中的内存泄漏？

Question

对于一个学校项目，我们必须通过网络发送大文件。我们必须使用 Poco::XML 作为我们的数据。

我们的文件通过网络发送后，内存似乎没有释放。

这里是接收端一个 ~9 Mb 文件的例子:

valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes -v ourExecutable parms 返回:

 12,880,736 bytes in 37 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 101 of 101

Poco之前的函数是

const string NodeProtocol::getChildNodeStrValue(Element * elem, string child)
{
    Element*  tempNode = elem->getChildElement(child);
    XMLString result(tempNode->innerText());
    string ret = string(fromXMLString(result));
    result.clear();
    return ret;
}

调用

XMLString Element::innerText() const
{
    XMLString result;
    Node* pChild = firstChild();
    while (pChild)
    {
        result.append(pChild->innerText());
        pChild = pChild->nextSibling();
    }
    return result;
}

(注意 XMLString 是 std::string)

为什么STL字符串的append会泄漏内存？

如果我只是分配而不是使用复制构造函数，它会产生同样的问题。

编辑:

我在 Gentoo x64 (linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r12) 上使用最新稳定的 GNU GCC 4.4.4。

调用堆栈中的更多函数(剥离了不相关的大块代码/if 结构):

Command * NodeProtocol::deserialize(const string & msg)
{
    DOMParser xmlParser;

    // Get the root node.
    AutoPtr<Document> doc = xmlParser.parseString(msg);
    AutoPtr<Element> rootElement = doc->documentElement();

    string root = fromXMLString(rootElement->nodeName());
    string name = getChildNodeStrValue(rootElement, "name");
    string data = getChildNodeStrValue(rootElement, "data");
    return new PutCommand(name, data);
}

和

void Node::handleClientPacket(PriorityElement * prio)
{
        Command * command = NodeProtocol::deserialize(prio->fPacket);

        // CUT: Access some properties of command, let the command execute.

        delete command;
}

和

void Node::handlePackets()
{
    PriorityElement * prio = fQueue->top();
    fQueue->pop();

    if (prio->fSource == kCLIENT)
        handleClientPacket(prio);
    else if (prio->fSource == kNODE)
        handleNodePacket(prio);

    delete prio;
}

fQueue 是:

priority_queue< PriorityElement*,  vector<PriorityElement*>, ComparisonFunction >

Answer 1

我会对此发表评论，但显然我没有代表。您是否记得将 Command 的析构函数设为虚拟？如果 name 或 data 是 PutCommand 的字段而不是 Command 和 Command 析构函数不是虚拟的，当您删除 handleClientPacket 中的 command 时，它们可能无法正确释放。
