Re: ustring memory leak

[Fabian Jacquet <fabian jacquet gmail com>]

I have no  problem with the constructor.
I need to use a compare to have the memory leak.

I think your are right about memory slices. Do you think it's possible...
1) to free the slices when I finish my threads (my Windows threads)
or
2) to compile GLib without the feature which uses memory slices for thread?

You probably need to re-read my post.  Or at any rate, I don't think
much stands between elision of the copy constructor "just possibly" not
happening (my words) and "usually" happening (your words).  I would go
for either.
