valgrind reporting: blocks still reachable with magickwand

valgrind reporting: blocks still reachable with magickwand

Post by toasty »

I'm using LinuxMint 14.0 and I had to apt-get a few extra magickwand libraries such as: libmagickwand-dev libmagickwand5 libmagickcore5 to get it to compile. I'm compiling the logo_1.c example from here:
http://members.shaw.ca/el.supremo/MagickWand/
This is the code:

Code: Select all

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<wand/magick_wand.h>

void test_wand(void)
{
	MagickWand *mw = NULL;

	MagickWandGenesis();

	/* Create a wand */
	mw = NewMagickWand();

	/* Read the input image */
	MagickReadImage(mw,"logo:");
	/* write it */
	MagickWriteImage(mw,"logo.jpg");

	/* Tidy up */
	if(mw) mw = DestroyMagickWand(mw);

	MagickWandTerminus();
}

int main (int argc, char *argv[]) {
  test_wand();
  return(0);
}
This is the compile line:

Code: Select all

gcc -I/usr/include/ImageMagick -g -o logo_1 logo_1.c -lMagickWand -lMagickCore
I run it with the following valgrind line:

Code: Select all

 valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=yes --show-reachable=yes --num-callers=20 --track-fds=yes ./logo_1
I'm getting:

Even if I just do the MagickWandGenesis() and MagickWandTerminus() I still get the blocks still reachable. I'm planning to write a program using this as the template, and I would like to have a perfectly clean report from valgrind before starting so that all future findings will be my own bugs and I'll know which ones I need to work on. Is this "still reachable" memory a problem that's going to be addressed, or has it been addressed and I'm calling it wrongly? Thanks

Re: valgrind reporting: blocks still reachable with magickwa

Post by magick »

There is an errant atexit() handler in the Jasper library which can cause a fault if we call the Libtool lt_dlexit() method to clean up memory in the dynamic module loader. To fix, either build ImageMagick without support for the Jasper library or build ImageMagick without module support (the default build).
