POOpenCV Mat creation produces memory leak

Body
copied!<p>My memory is getting full fairly quick once using the next piece of code. Valgrind shows a memory leak, but everything is allocated on stack and (supposed to be) freed once the function ends. </p> <pre><code>void mult_run_time(int rows, int cols) { Mat matrix(rows,cols,CV_32SC1); Mat row_vec(cols,1,CV_32SC1); /* initialize vector and matrix */ for (int col = 0; col < cols; ++col) { for (int row = 0; row < rows; ++row) { matrix.at<unsigned long>(row,col) = rand() % ULONG_MAX; } row_vec.at<unsigned long>(1,col) = rand() % ULONG_MAX; } /* end initialization of vector and matrix*/ matrix*row_vec; } int main() { for (int row = 0; row < 20; ++row) { for (int col = 0; col < 20; ++col) { mult_run_time(row,col); } } return 0; } </code></pre> <p>Valgrind shows that there is a memory leak in line <code>Mat row_vec(cols,1,CV_32CS1)</code>:</p> <pre><code>==9201== 24,320 bytes in 380 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 50 of 50 ==9201== at 0x4026864: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:236) ==9201== by 0x40C0A8B: cv::fastMalloc(unsigned int) (in /usr/local/lib/libopencv_core.so.2.3.1) ==9201== by 0x41914E3: cv::Mat::create(int, int const*, int) (in /usr/local/lib/libopencv_core.so.2.3.1) ==9201== by 0x8048BE4: cv::Mat::create(int, int, int) (mat.hpp:368) ==9201== by 0x8048B2A: cv::Mat::Mat(int, int, int) (mat.hpp:68) ==9201== by 0x80488B0: mult_run_time(int, int) (mat_by_vec_mult.cpp:26) ==9201== by 0x80489F5: main (mat_by_vec_mult.cpp:59) </code></pre> <p>Is it a known bug in OpenCV or am I missing something?</p>
