Known issues of MAL 1.0.4
-------------------------

Below there is a list of known issues important for a developer / user of MAL. 
For complete list of issues, check Anomaly Traceability Matrix in Test Report documents.

- The OPC UA C++ open62541 library supplied with DevEnv still has a small memory leak. Test under valgrind fails because of this. Suppression file is available elt-dev/mal-opcua/cpp/ open62541-asyncConnect.supp that can be used to get valgrind tests to pass.

- Python binding for async. request-reply methods that return void do not complete, although completion was reported to the future object. It works for all other non-void futures. The issue was fixed in more recent boost libraries. See JIRA ELTDEV-262.
