### script to help debug leaks of reference counted objects

## I. to use it, first override acquire() and release()

# Foo * g_pTrackedFoo = 0;

# Foo::Foo()
#   static int nFoos = 0;
#     if (++nFoos == 42) // track instance #42
#       g_pTrackedFoo = this;

# void Foo::acquire()
#   if (this == g_pTrackedFoo)
#     ; // set gdb breakpoint here
#   Foo_Base::acquire()

# void Foo::release()
#   if (this == g_pTrackedFoo)
#      ; // set gdb breakpoint here
#   Foo_Base::release()

## II. run test/soffice in gdb and set breakpoints in acquire/release
##     with a command to print the backtrace

# set logging on
# break foo.cxx:123
# break foo.cxx:234

# command 1 2
# bt
# c
# end
# run

## III. now feed logfile gdb.txt into this script

# bin/refcount_leak.py < gdb.txt
