(I would be too…) And in general how would application code even go about calling this, given they probably only depend directly on FFmpeg and not necessarily on libxml2 too… Even when applications call this properly, they (and indirectly users) would get this warning anyway possibly thinking there is a bug even when the application did everything right. This is essentially the same issue libcurl has about global initialisation and I do not think there is a satisfying solution for this for Ffmpeg unfortunately. > if ((ret = parse_manifest(s, s->url, s->pb)) < 0) > return ret; > > -- > 2.39.3 (Apple Git-146) > > _______________________________________________ > ffmpeg-devel mailing list > ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org > https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel > > To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email > ffmpeg-devel-request@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".

Because there have global varible in libxml2, it cleans up memory allocated by the library itself. It is a cleanup function for the XML library. It tries to reclaim all related global memory allocated for the library processing. It doesn't deallocate any document related memory. One should call xmlCleanupParser() only when the process has finished using the library and all XML/HTML documents built with it. See also xmlInitParser() which has the opposite function of preparing the library for operations. if there are multithreaded or has plugin support calling this may crash the application if another thread or a plugin is still using libxml2. So give a warning message to user for call xmlCleanupParser by themselves. Signed-off-by: Steven Liu <lq@chinaffmpeg.org> --- libavformat/dashdec.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
