Hi,

if pfTexture->loadFile() is called, the previous image's reference
count is decremented as it should. However, it doesn't pfDelete
the image when the refcount is 0.

more specific :

while(1) {
   texture->loadFile("texture.jpg");
}

crashes because of memory exhaustion.

the workaround:

while(1) {
   texture->getImage(&img, &comp, &nr, &ns, &nt);
   texture->loadFile("texture.jpg");
   pfDelete(img);
}

I would say that the texture is responsible of cleaning
up the old image, or do I miss something?

(I'm using Performer 3.0 on IRIX)

Rick.
