dojox.gfx.Image setShape memory leak in IE8

[tbjuhasz]

The code below will cause IE 8 to use up all the memory on the computer and crash.

NOTE: url is a URL to a gif image.

var surface = dojox.gfx.createSurface(id, width,height); var group = surface.createGroup(); var image = group.createImage();

while (1) {

image.setShape({x:0,y:0,width:512,height:512,src:url});

}

Needs careful consideration.

Given that no one has shown interest in creating a patch in the past 5+ years, I'm closing this as patchwelcome.
