[Winpcap-bugs] Still an old error in new version (4.0 alpha)?

[Gianluca Varenni]

Hi.

As I replied back in August 2005, the leak is NOT in WinPcap, but in NetMon, the Microsoft COM component that we use to capture from VPN/dialup adapters, and the leak affects windows 2000, only (MS probably fixed such leak in XP/2003). 

We cannot do anything to fix this problem (as it's not under our control).

Have a nice day
GV

(version 4.0 alpha, still an old error of version 3.1 http://www.winpcap.org/pipermail/winpcap-users/2005-August/000244.html)Error: not free memory in function pcap_findalldevs???The source test is demo program: iflist project in developer pack. My enviroment: Win2kPro sp4, Visual C++6...I change this source, replace the main function as following: (put a for loop to check function: pcap_findalldevs)int i;int main(){ pcap_if_t *alldevs; pcap_if_t *d; char errbuf[PCAP_ERRBUF_SIZE+1]; for(i=0;i<10000;i++) {   /* Retrieve the device list */  if(pcap_findalldevs(&alldevs, errbuf) == -1)  {   fprintf(stderr,"Error in pcap_findalldevs: %s\n", errbuf);   exit(1);  }    /* Scan the list printing every entry */  for(d=alldevs;d;d=d->next)  { //  ifprint(d);  }  /* Free the device list */  pcap_freealldevs(alldevs); 
 printf("\ni=%d",i);  printf("\nPress any key and see Windows Task Manager\nyou will see memory of this process is increased");  getch();  } return 1;}Please check this problem!Thanks!
