Objects Not Released Properly when exiting TestStandYou may encounter TestStand object leaks in certain scenarios when closing TestStand. Affected scenarios: Dragging and dropping a Boolean variable multiple times into a step (Ex. Statement Step). Similarly, opening the Configure Property Node dialog in a LabVIEW Action step (after setting the call type to Property Node Call). Problem occurs when using the Sweep Loop feature—simply opening the sweep loop table, clicking Export to CSV, and then closing the dialogs. When the user creates a new watch expression during a paused execution at a breakpoint. Add Goto Step in a sequence file. Opening the Property Selector tab after changing a Source Type in the Import/Export tool Workaround: There is currently no known workaround for this issue. |
