Using Magic_OpenFileInMemory. Memory management question.

[Nomad]

Hello.

Will Magic_CloseFile() release the buffer which I pass to Magic_OpenFileInMemory()?

Memory management question is not covered in docs at all for Magic_OpenFileInMemory() function.

Thanks

Magic_CloseFile() releases the buffer.

Ok. I will add this information in new version of the manual.

I am sorry. I did not understand question. Magic_CloseFile does not release the buffer. Magic_CloseFile releases information about file, which was loaded from this buffer. You need to use delete []buffer.

hm..

I tried to delete[] buffer.
But it seems that it changes in some of Magic Particles API calls, because when I call delete[], my app either hangs or breaks on corrupted heap exception.

I will research this issue further to give you more information on this.

Sorry.
That was my bug.
Now I'm releasing the buffer after Magic_CloseFile() call and all works just fine.
Thanks.

You are welcome.
