I think it's not right to let people wait so long for a bugfix. I can't tell my customers to get there problems fixed in about one year... Your Lib is really great work, but if you don't fix the bugs, it is not possible to use it for professional develeopment. regards, Ralf

The LOB's and the list are only freed in case of an exception. We have fixed this for the next release. ... We'll have a beta for 4.1 available later this week, which adds Unicode support and includes this particular fix. So: You ment that you will fix the memory leak in Version 4.1, or not?

I have to buy an upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 for just some unicode support. There haven't been an new features for a few yeas now. No info about the new Oracle 11G support. No integrated help for Delphi 2007 No .NET version. So, from this moment on, we will stop using DOA for all new projects and fase out all projects that use DOA. We are very dissapointed with the current development (or better lack of...) of DOA right now. Johan Visser
