Is CA_AllocMemory() Tracked in Resource Tracking?

[unnikrishnan]

I have been using the Resource Tracking option to track down memory leaks. But I recently noticed couple of  memory allocations using CA_AllocMemory() that were never freed. It didn't show up in Resource Tracking though. So I was wondering if it tracks only memory allocation using malloc/calloc or do I need to enable some option. I had the Options->Build Options->Debugging Level set to 'Extended'.

Hello unnikrishnan!

The bahaviour you are seing is expected, as the Resource Tracking window doesn't track individual memory allocations of CA_AllocMemory(). You can check the CVI help topic for Resource Tracking to read about the ActiveX objects that are tracked.
