Memory leaks with QDomElement::tagName()

[saracaeus]

well, thats exactly why I am helpless... I have no clue... the memory leaks coming from VS2005, this is the output:

And as I noted: the method is NOT even called!

And once i comment this line, the memory leaks are gone!

When is that "leak" reported? If the method is not called, it can't possibly create a memory leak. If you have a leak then it is elsewhere.
