OpenCV ?false? memory leak in VisualStudio
Maybe this is not a true memory leak but it must be worrisome to some developers. I have seen similar posts to this around the web.
My most recent experience is with wxWidgets and OpenCV 4.0.0 The single line below that declares a simple Mat makes the difference between VS detecting a memory leak or not. I have tried several suggestions including delayed dll loading for OpenCV dlls, freeing up a mutex in core/system.cpp but no luck so far.
Is this really a memory leak? Any suggestions??
