I am making an application, but I am having problems with the Leak memory when I use libxml2, already removed all the code to isolate only libxml2 and still have the Leak memory error when I use Valgrind, how can I solve this problem?
This is an example of code, where I’m just trying to open an xml file to parse:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <libxml/parser.h>
/*
*
*/
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
xmlDoc *document = NULL;
xmlInitParser();
document = xmlReadFile("./parameter.xml", NULL, 0);
if (document == NULL) {
printf("Failure on read xml file\r\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (document != NULL) {
xmlFreeDoc(document);
}
/*
* Cleanup function for the XML library.
*/
xmlCleanupParser();
/*
* this is to debug memory for regression tests
*/
xmlMemoryDump();
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
This is the Valgrind command I’m using to see if there’s memory Leak.
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all --tool=memcheck --leak-check=yes ./test
This is the result of Valgrind.
