Memory leak using the shared_ptr C++

See more:

C++14

Hi,
I am using the shared_ptr and declaring as
std::shared_ptr<classa>ptr = std::make_shared<classa>();

So when ever i want to use i am directly calling the pointer and using in the methods.
by using pointer like this memory increases for every call from the method.
I see memory increases in Taskmanager.


Can anyone help me how can i release memory or delete/reset the pointer in/after the function call?


Thanks for the help!!

What I have tried:

1. I have tried resetting the pointer after the function call by ptr.reset();
2. making it as weak_ptr
3. making singleton
