Hello,

Try this :

    1. Build an MFCApp using AppWizard in Visual Studio (6.0) (accept all
defaults)
    2. Map message WM_CHAR in the View
    3. Implement as follows :

        void CMFCTestView::OnChar(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags)
        {
             switch (nChar)
             {
                  case 27 : PostQuitMessage(0);
                                 return ;
             }
             CView::OnChar(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);
        }

    4. Build and Run
    5. Press escape (quits the application)
    6. Watch the memory dump in the output window

    Is this to be expected or is there another way to quit an application
without having
    this annoying memory leak ??

Thanks.

Chris

Hi,
By sending a Quitmessage you dump the programm totally
without giving yourself any chance of cleanup. This is definitely the wrong way of terminating a program.

You should post either a WM_CLOSE message.
