Description eymux2009 2011-01-13 12:03:26 UTC 
The macro in the attached document exports the document 4000 times as PDF via
storeToURL. Running it once on a computer with 2GB RAM leaks enough memory to
have a visible effect on the stability of Windows. UI elements are no longer
drawn, new forms won't open and other programs won't start. Running the macro
twice makes Windows all but unusable.

Steps to reproduce:
* Open the attached document
* Launch the macro storeToUrl_error.odt/Standard/Module1/Main
* Wait for the macro to exit

Note: if your computer has more than 2GB RAM, you might have to run the macro
more often.

MRU->OS: run the Main Macro attached to the document. See that Writer will now
eat up slowly but continuously memory.

Since last SVT(r1400866) shows there is no memory leak, so close this defect as resolved.
