Dear Developers,

there are two Adobe Flex issues which cannot be fixed. Flex developers think these are not Flex bugs. The root cause can be found in the Flash Player. According to Tamarin homepage, Tamarin is embedded within Flash Player 9. That's why I report these bugs at Bugzilla.

For the full descriptions check the following urls:

Thanks,

Dear Developers,

I have built Tamarin (tamarin-central) from source on Linux and Windows.
Both versions of the avmshell are not leaking.

I attached 2 test files (packed in a zip) at the following url:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-599

One of them is an MXML file.
If you try it, you would see that the SWF is leaking.

The other file is an Actionscript code for testing awmshells. For me the built version of "large.as" file did not leaked.

I think Flash Player developers have integrated an older version of Tamarin OR something is wrong with the integration.

So Tamarin does not leak.

I you want to confirm it, you can check my test files.

Thanks,

Laszlo
