The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Memory Leak in setlocale

Asked by harish_dixit1 in Kernel And Operating System Specific Programming, Windows Programming, Windows ATL / WTL / COM Programming

Hi,

I am making _tsetlocale calls to set the locale information in my application. Memory Leak Analyzer is showing memory leak for the following code:

_tsetlocale(LC_COLLATE, _T(""));

Its showing memory leak in the following function in the file :
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\crt\src\wsetloca.c"

wchar_t * __cdecl _wsetlocale (
int _category,
const wchar_t *_wlocale
)

Inside this function its showing leak at the following line:
refcount = (int *)_malloc_crt(size * sizeof(wchar_t) + sizeof(int));

Its showing 58 bytes leak for one call of _tsetlocale.
