R extension memory leak detection question
This is the wrong list for such questions. Post to r-devel instead. Cheers, Bert Gunter "The trouble with having an open mind is that people keep coming along and sticking things into it." -- Opus (aka Berkeley Breathed in his "Bloom County" comic strip )

I am writing C++ program based on R extensions and also try to test the
program with google address sanitizer.
I thought if we don't protect the variable from the allocation API such as
Rf_allocVector, there will be a memory leak. However, the address sanitizer
didn't report it. Is my understanding correct? Or I will see the memory
leak only if I compile R source code with the address sanitizer.
Please help!
Thanks,
