Hi!
I noticed that the ObjectFactoryBase does not release the allocated member
m_RegisteredFactories when the application finishes. Technically this is not
a memory leak, since the memory is definitely allocated only once and is
released by OS when the application quits. It is however a bit annoying,
when searching for true memory leaks caused by bugs in other parts of code.
Is this behavior by design, or is it a bug (feature???) in
ObjectFactoryBase?
The above problem can be eliminated quite easy by using the atexit function,
but I might not be aware of all the consequences. It seems to work on VC++,
though.
