Hi Kevin,

This is good. I had a leak, found it and I don't know why you
didn't have one. It centers on how your global cache works.

This is my new dump master code, note the new like with todays
date.

  } else if (action == do_dump) {
    EXIT_ON_ERR_SET(add_data_set(config->retrieve("master-path"),
*config), Dict *, d);
    StackPtr<Convert> conv(setup_conv(d->lang(), config));
    dump(d, conv);
    d->release(); //31-Oct-04
  }

What you may have intended, was to keep the Dict (aka Dictionary)
object in the global cache and let the destructor of the cache
delete it it. But your ~GlobalCacheBase does not release/delete
anything. How come you are not getting a memory leak?

Best regards,
Gary
