[gdal-dev] memory leak in gdal program

[jramm]

I'm using GDAL 201 to iterate features in a geodatabase feature class and add
a new text field, whose value depends on the integer value in another
field.It gives a fairly large memory leak (approx 1GB for every 1m features
iterated). I'm not sure where the leak is....any ideas?The full code:int
main(int argc, char *argv[]){	// Get the input arguments	char *path =
argv[1];	char *layer = argv[2];	char *field = argv[3];	// Open the dataset
in update mode	GDALAllRegister();	GDALDatasetH hDS;	hDS = GDALOpenEx(path,
GDAL_OF_VECTOR | GDAL_OF_UPDATE , NULL, NULL, NULL);	if( hDS == NULL )	{	
printf( "Open failed.\n" );		exit( 1 );	}	// Get the layer	OGRLayerH hLayer;
hLayer = GDALDatasetGetLayerByName(hDS, layer);	OGRFeatureDefnH hFDefn =
OGR_L_GetLayerDefn(hLayer);	// Get the field index	int index =
OGR_FD_GetFieldIndex(hFDefn, field);	// Create the new field	OGRFieldDefnH
hFieldDefn;	hFieldDefn = OGR_Fld_Create("depth_band", OFTString);
OGR_Fld_SetWidth(hFieldDefn, 32);    if( OGR_L_CreateField( hLayer,
hFieldDefn, TRUE ) != OGRERR_NONE )    {        printf( "Creating depth_band
field failed.\n" );        exit( 1 );    }    OGR_Fld_Destroy(hFieldDefn);
int value; // Field value	char depth_band[32]; //New attribute	// Loop
through all features	OGRFeatureH hFeature;	OGR_L_ResetReading(hLayer);	int
count = 0;	while( (hFeature = OGR_L_GetNextFeature(hLayer)) != NULL)	{		//
Get the depth band value and map it to the depth band description text	
value = OGR_F_GetFieldAsInteger(hFeature, index);		switch(value){			case 1:			
depth_band = "x <= 0.3m";				break;			case 2:				depth_band = "0.3 < x <=
1m";				break;			case 3:				depth_band = "1 < x <= 3m";				break;			case 4:			
depth_band = "3 < x <= 6m";				break;			case 5:				depth_band = "6 < x <=
9m";				break;			case 6:				depth_band = "x > 9m";				break;		}		// Set the
new field value		OGR_F_SetFieldString(hFeature,
OGR_F_GetFieldIndex(hFeature, "depth_band"), depth_band);		count++;	
printf("%d features processed\r", count);	}	GDALClose(hDS);
printf("\nProcessing complete!\n");}
