vtkDebugLeaks
Section: Visualization Toolkit Common Classes
Usage
vtkDebugLeaks is used to report memory leaks at the exit of the program.
It uses the vtkObjectFactory to intercept the construction of all VTK
objects. It uses the UnRegister method of vtkObject to intercept the
destruction of all objects. A table of object name to number of instances
is kept. At the exit of the program if there are still VTK objects around
it will print them out. To enable this class add the flag
-DVTK_DEBUG_LEAKS to the compile line, and rebuild vtkObject and
vtkObjectFactory.
To create an instance of class vtkDebugLeaks, simply
invoke its constructor as follows
obj = vtkDebugLeaks
