Subject: [patch] unfreed memory in cli_command_loop
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2007 02:17:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <18552.12.7.175.2.1183082732.squirrel@webmail.sonic.net> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 139 bytes --]
Minor memory leak. I checked to make sure that readline makes
and keeps its own copy of this string, so it's OK for us to
free our copy.

* event-top.c (cli_command_loop): Prompt string can (and should)
be freed after call to readline (Coverity). Also move local var
declarations into block where they are used.
