Inline cpp memory leak

[Wolf-S]

Hello all,

Houdini seems to be eating up 1 MB of memory per execution of this Python operator:

import inlinecpp 

iterations = inlinecpp.createLibrary(name="cpp_heat_iteration_library", includes = """ 

#include <GU/GU_Detail.h> 

""", function_sources=[""" 
void iterate(GU_Detail *geo){ 
    return; 
    // stuff 
} 
"""]) 

geo = hou.pwd().geometry() 
iterations.iterate(geo)

There's a bunch of stuff after 'return;', but I've narrowed it down to this and it's still eating 1 MB of memory per execution. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

I have a particle system, amongst others, connected to this node which makes all the difference. Once it's off, it doesn't eat up memory. It makes no sense...

Edit: To add to this, said POP network only creates 1024 particles from a grid - nothing too complicated.

its a known problem.

in your last line where you call the function, replace geo with hou.pwd().geometry(). don´t ask for the geometry outside the inlinecpp-function.

Thank you, that works.

P.S. I've since switched to compiling non-inlinecpp with hcustom and haven't had problems yet.
