Allocation error with 'cvCreateGLCM' method

Hi, I am trying to compute GLCM for an input image. I load the image, convert it to grayscale, then I invoke cvCreateGLCM method on the grayscale image. OpenCV Version: 2.4.1, vc10, x64.

const char* filePath = "C:\\input.jpg";
IplImage* inputIm = cvLoadImage(filePath);

IplImage* grayIm = cvCreateImage(cvSize(width, height), IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1);
cvCvtColor(inputIm, grayIm, CV_RGB2GRAY);

CvGLCM* glcm = cvCreateGLCM(resizedGray, 0);  // ERROR

I get the following error message image description

when I press 'Break', it shows where the error took place:

__forceinline void * __cdecl _heap_alloc (size_t size)

{

    if (_crtheap == 0) {
        _FF_MSGBANNER();    /* write run-time error banner */
        _NMSG_WRITE(_RT_CRT_NOTINIT);  /* write message */
        __crtExitProcess(255);  /* normally _exit(255) */
    }

    return HeapAlloc(_crtheap, 0, size ? size : 1);  // <<< The error
}

Any ideas please?

There is error with cvAlloc in this code. See the following page: http://tech.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/OpenCV/message/67611?var=1 You should change /opencv/modules/legacy/src/texture.cpp file to the next:

Hey Alexander,

Thanks for your workaround. It works fine, but ends up in a memory-leak. I tried to fix it during the last 2 days, could handle the memory-leak but ended up in a wrong result. It seems that the cvReleaseGLCM doesn't work. I have no idea how to fix it and would be pleased if you could help.

Regards Robert.

I've tried to get entropy value from cvCreateGLCMDescritptors but since the cvCreateGLCM had a bug I can't resolve this. Solution from Alexander Shishkov is really working for my code. Thank you so much.

Hey Alexander, I changed my texture.cpp file and I used your main function code. It giving the error as malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0000000000e0c320 * Aborted (core dumped) please can you help to fix this error

Thank you very much - your answer works quite well ! Except that with your proposed solution I end up getting memory-leaks using "cvCreateGLCM" !!! What could be the mistake ? My C-skills are not sufficiant to find out more.

Reading link1 , link2 or link3, they all mention 3 additional bugs inside /modules/legacy/src/texture.cpp But none of the three links work for me neither without errors (maybe since they keep using cvAlloc - their code does not go through without an exception...).

Do you have any suggestion on how to get glcm running without memory leaks ? Please consult the three links in order to compare your solution with the 3 suggested bugs. Are they relevant ?

Many thanks for any help on this.
