We are using TeeChart Pro v6.0.0.4 and when adding and deleting an annotation tool into a chart, it leaks aproximately 700 bytes of memory each time.

Code: Select all

    Dim index As Integer
    
    index = TChart1.Tools.Add(tcAnnotate)
    TChart1.Tools.Delete (index)

I think the Delete method does not actually delete the tool, because, if I don't call it, the leak it's almost the same.

It is solved in any version of TeeChart?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Jesus,

I've tried the following code here using the latest TeeChart Pro v6.04 and works as expected (memory does not leaks) , also the tool is deleted. Could you please check it ?

Code: Select all

Private Sub Command1_Click()
  Dim index As Integer
    index = TChart1.Tools.Add(tcAnnotate)
'    TChart1.Tools.Delete (index)
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
With TChart1
    .AddSeries scLine
    .Series(0).FillSampleValues (10)
End With
End Sub

If you still having problems, could you please post the code with which I can reproduce the problem "as - is" here ?

I made a test program that consist only in an empty TChart and a button, and the code is:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim counter As Long
    Dim index As Integer
    
    For counter = 1 To 5000
        index = TChart1.Tools.Add(tcAnnotate)
        TChart1.Tools.Delete (index)
    Next counter
End Sub

This code leaks about 3500 Kb each time button is pressed.
