Hi All,
Sorry for posting twice in two days, but I'm having lots of trouble getting
this right.
Robert points out in the bus route example that the memory leaks can be
solved using shared_ptrs (bottom of this page:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_47_0/libs/serialization/doc/tutorial.html#ex...
)
I have a basic example (below), quite like the bus route, that has memory
leaks when using raw pointers. I've converted it to shared_ptrs but the
leaks are exactly the same. Where have I gone wrong?
I'm using VS2010 (hence the memory leak headers & function call to
_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks();).
Any help much appreciated!
