Re: tolua potential memory leak?

[Fabian Peña <fapenia@...>]

And ..

char * getFile()
{
   char *buffer;
     FILE *f;
   f=fopen("somefile","rb");
   //bla bla
   fread((char *)buffer,lengthoffile,1);
   fclose(f);
   return buffer;
}

Use this function in c

 char *buffer;
 buffer = getFile();

//Do something with the buffer

 free(buffer);

//be happy
