Memory managment for classes inheriting from PObject.

Question

Hey, I have a class that inherits form PObject, and im not sure how to manage the memory for it. In profiles, it shows up as leaks, so im sure im doing something wrong.
First, how do i figure our what type of PObject it is (Transient or Persistent)
.typ file looks like this:
CASE=LOWER
TYPE ist
TYPE istt
table looks like:
desc ITEM;
Name Null Type
.. other types ...
STAT_ARRAY STAT_VA()
when inserting in code:
std::vector<ist*> stats;
for (...)
ist* itemStatType = new ist;
itemStatType->setstat_id(123);
itemStatType->setstat_value(123);
stats.push_back(itemStatType);
static std::string sqlTypeName("STAT_VA");
setVector(statement, 16, stats, "SCHEMA", sqlTypeName);
statement->execute()
and we never delete what we have new'ed, under the assumption that occi has taken ownership.
If this is not correct, when is the correct time to delete the values? (safely?) After statement->execute() ?

Answer 1

You probably didn't define draw() with the exactsame
method signatureBelieve me I did :) This was the first thing I
checked when I saw this error for the first time...
Any other suggestions? :)The possibilities that I can think of are (most of these have already been suggested):
1. you didn't define draw with the correct signature
2. you're not extending the class you think you're extending
3. you're not compiling the class you think you're compiling
4. there's a bug in your compiler
I'd say 3 is extremely unlikely. So without seeing your code, we can only guess, but I would guess #1.
