Description yeray alonso 2013-11-20 11:43:49 EST

Having a chart with a populated series, exporting it many times (doesn't matter on the format: emf, gif, jpg, pdf,...) it seems that the memory demanded isn't liberated because the memory demanded for the application increases constantly.
This doesn't happen in VCL. And in AX 8004 the memory remains stable at about 10MB.
To run the example, create the folder "C:\tmp\files". And have a Task manager opened to see the memory on demand.
Private Sub Command1_Click()
  For i = 1 To 5000
    TChart1.Export.asMetafile.SaveToFile "C:\tmp\files\" & Trim(Str(i)) & ".emf"
  Next i
  
  MsgBox "Finished!"
End Sub
Private Sub Form_Load()
  TChart1.AddSeries scPoint
  TChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues 25
End Sub
