	Memory leaks by aparajita :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi, Just so you know, v5.0b3 has many memory leaks, so you can expect memory usage to increase over time. I am in the process of plugging those leaks, I hope to have a new version out later today.

	Re: Memory leaks by Oliver Brodwolf :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hello Aparajita I found out, that every time there is a process-variable in the game (if a reference to a collection, or not, it makes memory problems). I eliminated a lot of them in my application, and this helps. But now I have to do a lot of global($myPseudoProcessVar) in most methods. I know, the other solution would be to use the _request collection. Isn't it possible, to declare a view variables as global in a special way (in On Execute Start) , so that in any method this variables are global without declare it in the method. method "On Execute Start" global($myPseudoProcessVar ; modeAnywhere) end method method "test" write($myPseudoProcessVar) end method Regards, Oliver Am 12.10.2009 um 16:14 schrieb Aparajita Fishman: > Hi, > > Just so you know, v5.0b3 has many memory leaks, so you can expect > memory usage to increase over time.

I will eliminate this leak, but in general you shouldn't use process variables as globals. > But now I have to do a lot of > global($myPseudoProcessVar) in most methods. If you only want the variable to be global to the current request, this is not correct. The globals collection is global to every process. It's the equivalent to interprocess variables in 4D. > I know, the other solution would be to use the _request collection.

The simplest solution would be to allow you to use global() in the global scope, which would make the variables global to the entire request. I'll have to see if this is possible. In the meantime please use _request.

It sounded to me like you want to declare a variable to be global only once in the global scope.
