Update of /cvsroot/monetdb/sql/src/storage/bpm In directory sc8-pr-cvs16.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv12270
Modified Files: bpm_distribution.mx Log Message: Use strdup to avoid problems with garbage on the string.
I suppose you do take care of the "garbage" that strdup() creates, i.e., free() the malloc()'ed memory once it is not used any more ... The _DELETE functions is used when a bpmHost is destroyed. Does it free the memory? I don't know the _DELETE functions --- simply look at them ... I just used an example where the procedures to create and destroy a structure are the same as mine.
I checked in this change because the strings were not stored in the structure.
After the function call the strings used to to create the structure were destroyed because they were local variables.
Using the strdup I create a copy of them which is them destroyed when the structure is destroyed, using the _DELETE function.
The destroy function was implemented correctly, but it was not the case for the create function.
Niels, check if I miss something.... It seems was not right. The fix is checked and the log message says everything:
This is C code and not C++ code, this means that _DELETE frees the structure not the fields of a structure. We should also use _strdup instead of strdup because we do not want malloc, but GDKmalloc. Romulo

I just noticed that your checkin creates one extra copy of each of these strings, but I did not see any extra delete (free) calls; hence, (even) if the original code did free the original strings (e.g., via the _DELETE functions), it will not free your new copies, instead, but leave the original strings behind creating leaks ...
