Hi! Briefly: how to free memory allocated for keys correctly ? In detail: I tried to read the documents libssh_tutor_guided_tour, api.libssh.org carefully also I peek the source code of the library libssh sometimes :) I know that after ssh_new () it is necessary to make ssh_free () I know that after ssh_connect() it is necessary to make ssh_disconnect() and do it in this order: 1) ssh_new() 2) ssh_connect() 3) ssh_disconnect() 4) ssh_free() But I do not understand when I should do ssh_key_free () ? Can I do this just one time ssh_pki_import_pubkey_file() and ssh_pki_import_privkey_file() at the beginning of the program ? Can i NOT do it every time ssh_pki_import_pubkey_file() and ssh_pki_import_privkey_file() after ssh_new() ?Should I worry about ssh_key_free() will be call somewhere inside libssh ? if you will do this kind of infinite loop: for(;;){ if( !ssh_new() ) { ssh_free(); continue; } if( !ssh_connect() ) { ssh_disconnect() ssh_free() continue; } ssh_pki_import_pubkey_file(filename, ssh_key * pkey) /* if ssh_connect() will be unsuccessfull then memory leak will be happened */ ssh_pki_import_privkey_file(filename, NULL, NULL, NULL, ssh_key * pkey) /* if ssh_connect() will be unsuccessfull then memory leak will be happened */ ssh_userauth_try_publickey() ssh_userauth_publickey() ssh_disconnect() ssh_key_free() ssh_free() } -- Andrey Seredin
