May I suggest....
void dCloseODE ()
{
for (int i = 0; i < classes->size (); i++)
{
dFree ((*classes)[i], sizeof (dxGeomClass));
}
dFree (classes, sizeof(dArrayBase));
dFree (colliders, sizeof(dArrayBase));
}
I'm calling this right before my app exits, and the 'leaks' go away. I
realize they're not really significant, but I just hate seeing 'memory
leaks detected' after I close my app.
