Error on exit: Leaked effect refs

Aug 14, 2012 8:53 AM

Hello,

I have error message "After Effects: AEGP Plugin    Updater: Leaked effect refs (5027::12)"

when exit AfterEffects with saved project. The error appears only if there are two or more instanses of my effect. One instance is ok.

After effects ends it's work correctly. Except this annoying message.

What does it mean? Does anybody know how to fix it?

    it means that you got an effectH and did not dispose of it.

    why is it happening only when you have multiple instances of your effect?

    i have no idea.

    check your plug-in and see what might cause that situation.

    for example, if you get the effectH during sequence setup (once per new instance), and dispose of it during global setdown (once for all instances together).

    just an example...

    don't get stuck on that one possibility...

    Thank you for your answer!

    I found my mistake.

    I had several calls of AEGP_GetLayerEffectByIndex and just one call of AEGP_DisposeEffect
