Re: Bugs using delete (instead of delete[]) with new[]

Oops, I think you meant to send this to the tortoisesvn developer list...
this list is about the svn core libraries, which are 100% pure C. We have
no "new" or "delete". :-)

I recently have run several memory analysis tools on my one of my projects
and some corruption errors were detected in TortoiseSVN.dll.
The corruption is detected when a file-open dialog is closed.
Since Tortoise integrates with the shell, this is arguable an important bug
since every application is corrupting its free-store when open file dialogs
are closed.

There appears to be (at least) two locations where memory is allocated using
new[] but is freed using delete.
A review of the code searching for new[]'s and their corresponding delete or
delete[] might be the most effective way to fix this bug.
I have also included undecorated stack traces below (in case they help at
all).
(I searched the Flyspray task list and the ChangeLog.txt and saw no mention
of delete/new new[] nor delete regarding memory allocation.)
