Antw: Re: Agent++ in embedded environments

[Frank.Fock____t-online.de]

Hi Ulrich,

I am quite sure that the 1.4 MB memory leak is a leak
within the API itself. You can run an AGENT++ agent
for months without leaking any memory. As Christel indicated
in a private email, the problem could be rather located
in a special usage (probably inappropriate) of the API.

Anyway, we will track down the problem and post our
results on the mailing list.

BTW, there are AGENT++ users who run their agents on 
embedded systems (so at least it is possible)!

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Frank
