RE: OCSP eSNACC Memory leak Problem

Tom,

Thanks a lot.

AsnAny datatype memory leak problem can be solved as below.

Can you suggest what to be done for the below,

Other Areas of memory freeing problem in ,

Hashtable related,

SetAnyTypeUnknown,

SetAnyTypeByOid function calls.

Thanks,
Aruna

Aruna,

Your suggestion to fix the memory leak is almost correct. The ai value could potentially be a pointer to an AnyInfo value in the global hash table as you can see on line 154 in asn-any.c. You do not want to free the one in the hash table. You only want to free it if it was allocated on the heap by checking the anyId field of the ai pointer. Below is the modified code that should work best. We will eventually add this code to our baseline, in either the next patch or release.

void

FreeAsnAny PARAMS ((v),

AsnAny *v)

{

if ((v->ai != NULL) && (v->ai->Free != NULL))

v->ai->Free (v->value);

Asn1Free(v->value);

if (v->ai->anyId == kUnknownAnyObjectID)

Asn1Free(v->ai);

} /* FreeAsnAny */

Hi Tom Horvath,

I am using the latest eSNACC 1.7(with patch) only.

I am using the C library.

I am using eSNACC in our project for OCSP implementation.

For the AsnAny datatype related, I am finding comments in the eSNACC generated code like,

/* ANY - Fix Me! */

In asn-any.c the free function is like,

void

FreeAsnAny PARAMS ((v),

AsnAny *v)

{

if ((v->ai != NULL) && (v->ai->Free != NULL))

v->ai->Free (v->value);

} /* FreeAsnAny */

The code should be like as below,

void

FreeAsnAny PARAMS ((v),

AsnAny *v)

{

if ((v->ai != NULL) && (v->ai->Free != NULL))

v->ai->Free (v->value);

Asn1Free(v->value);

Asn1Free(v->ai);

} /* FreeAsnAny */

Please help me in solving this memory leak problem.

Thanks,
Aruna

Aruna,

I have a few questions.

1. What version of eSNACC are you using? The latest version is version 1.7 and it is available at http://www.digitalnet.com/knowledge/download.htm. If you are not using this version we strongly recommend you upgrade so that we can give you the best support.

2. Do you have all of the patches for the version you are is using? The patches for version 1.7 are located at the same location mentioned above. The patch released July 7, 2005 did address some memory leak issues.

3. Are you using the C or C++ library?

Thanks,

Tom Horvath

Hi,

I am facing the memory leak problem.

I am using the free calls present in eSNACC code.

Main Areas of freeing problem in ,

Hashtable related,

ANY datatype free, and

SetAnyTypeUnknown,

SetAnyTypeByOid function calls.

Can you suggest me how to fix this memory leak problem.

Thanks,
