[vtkusers] Kill process/thread or Free memory??

[Andrew J. P. Maclean]

Just guessing but it is more than likely a Win32 problem. You probably
have a worker thread containing a renderer that is writing to a view. So
what is happening is that the thread is still running and trying to
write to the view. Remember that worker threads, because they don't have
a message pump, should never write to the view directly.

Hi,

I´m using a win32 application with vtk (reading and view image), but
when I
close the application the program is still in memory (large memory
ocupied,
but 0 cpu time), and if I change my program i can't compile again
without
killing the process.
I already made the Delete() but program remains in memory, is there any
method "free(), or Kill()" in vtk, or is there any issue with
vtkimagereader, vtkimageviewer, vtkimageinteractor, that can´t free
memory
or the problem is the win32 application?

Thanks.
