the irony, i JUST found this 20 minutes ago:

http://www.flipcode.com/tutorials/tut_memleak.shtml

it requires a tiny bit of code, but no modifying to already existing code. (ie your program)

Check out ''MMGR'' at the bottom of the list.

OT: Not that it matters, but I mix up the use of ironic too. Perhaps ''coincidence'' would be a better word? Thanks for the article though, I had some terrible memory leaks in my pong game a while back (yea, memory leaks in a pong game... sorry, I''m a newbie ) that took me forever to find.

dictionary.com''s definition of ironic, just to make sure i haven''t misunderstood the word:

"Usage Note: The words ironic, irony, and ironically are sometimes used of events and circumstances that might better be described as simply “coincidental” or “improbable,"

i think that usage note is saying that it is being incorrectly used because people don''t know better. now you know, you don''t have to misuse it.
