Re: Gio & memory management

[nico <nico yojik eu>]

Thank you, Damien,

Yes, the g_free(child_path); is needed.
Now I need only... 43.8 Mb instead of 44.1 Mb.
That's better... But I guess the main memory leak isn't here...

In fact, in the first program that I post to the mailing list I was 
"building" the children filename by myself (with malloc, strcpy, strcat, 
free).

Regards,
Nicolas
