AllocationHooks
has aListenerList
member variable which was recently updated to allocate on instantiation of its internal listeners list:const SharedListeners listeners = std::make_shared<ArrayType>();
Call to
std::make_shared
allocates which results in an infinite loop:operator new
is called which attempts to access the staticAllocationHooks
object which does not yet exist - so the constructor gets called again, which then callsoperator new
again, and so round and round it goes - which unfortunately renders that feature unusable at the moment.As nice as maintaining a unified approach to handling listeners would be, I don't think there's much need to support multiple listeners as
AllocationHooks
primary reason for existence isUnitTestAllocationChecker
so I've simplified it to handle a singleListener
only.
