如何销毁 QPainter 对象/摆脱 drawText() 内存泄漏？

Question

我正在尝试减少大型应用程序的内存泄漏。使用 valgrind，在调用 QPainter 类的 drawText() 函数时，我还看到了许多内存泄漏实例。根据我读过的一些消息来源，这可能是一个Qt 错误，但我想也许我可以通过销毁QPainter 对象来摆脱它，就像文档所说的那样->“记得销毁@ 987654327@ 绘制后的对象。”

• 这样做的正确方法是什么？

这是一个 valgrind 日志实例，其中drawText() 导致泄漏：

Answer 1

如果您在堆栈上创建 QPainter 对象（即不使用new），如文档中所述：

void SimpleExampleWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *)
{
    QPainter painter(this);
    painter.setPen(Qt::blue);
    painter.setFont(QFont("Arial", 30));
    painter.drawText(rect(), Qt::AlignCenter, "Qt");
}

那么QPainter对象会在超出范围时被销毁（在上面的例子中：在函数的末尾）。文档中提到需要小心删除 QPainter 对象的原因是因为 Qt 本身不会这样做，这与很多 Qt 小部件管理有点不同。

因此，假设您改为动态分配此对象：

void SimpleExampleWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *)
{
    QPainter* painter = new QPainter(this);
    painter->setPen(Qt::blue);
    painter->setFont(QFont("Arial", 30));
    painter->drawText(rect(), Qt::AlignCenter, "Qt");
    // Delete object, since Qt wont do it for you:
    delete painter;
}

Qt 告诉您您负责清理 QPainter 对象，在我们的示例中，这是使用 delete 命令完成的。但是，如果您使用这种方法，您可能会考虑将其放入智能指针中，即：boost::scoped_ptr<QPainter> painter = new QPainter(this);

void SimpleExampleWidget::paintEvent(QPaintEvent *)
{
    boost::scoped_ptr<QPainter> painter = new QPainter(this);
    painter->setPen(Qt::blue);
    painter->setFont(QFont("Arial", 30));
    painter->drawText(rect(), Qt::AlignCenter, "Qt");
}

现在，至于正确的方法。这取决于，如果您在本地创建 QPainter 对象，您需要多久创建一次，就像在示例中一样？如果这会导致开销，请考虑将 QPainter 创建为成员变量并重用它。 （不过，如果您担心速度：“尽早优化绝不是一个好主意”是应该牢记在心的）。

如果您使用new 动态分配内存，请记住您也负责删除它。如果你只是像最上面的例子一样在堆栈上创建它，你不必担心，因为它会在它退出创建它的范围时被销毁。
