    Description

      In QtCreator,Just create a qmake project, simply with ui class:

      ......
      class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
      ......

       

      Add a private QToolBar member, and one slot:

      public slots:
          void refresh_toolbar();
      private: 
          QToolBar *tb;
      ......

       

      In the MainWindow's constructor, create the tb instance and call refresh_toolbar():

       

      MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent)
          : QMainWindow(parent)
          , ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
      {
          ui->setupUi(this);
      
          tb = new QToolBar(this);
          addToolBar(tb);
      
          refresh_toolbar();
      }
      
      void MainWindow::refresh_toolbar()
      {
          static int gg = 0;
          QList<QAction*> acts = tb->actions();
      
          tb->clear(); // Here actions's memory is not released!
      
          // This should release those actions and free the memory,
          // Qt-5.9.9-mingw32 does that OK,
          // Qt-5.12.9-msvc2019 and Qt-5.15.1-msvc2019 leaks memory
          foreach (QAction* act, acts) {
              delete act;
          }
      
          for(int i = 0; i < 150; ++i)
          {
              int title = gg * 1000 + i;
              QAction *action = tb->addAction(QString::number(title));
              action->setData(i);
              action->setCheckable( true );
              action->setChecked( title % 3 );
          }
      
          if(gg < 1000)
              QTimer::singleShot(gg++ ? 10 : 5000, this, SLOT(refresh_toolbar()));
      }
      ...

      Build and run the program, it's memory usage (see at windows task manager)  is growing up......

       

      Qt-5.9.9-mingw32-gcc-9.3-i686 is build from source and not affected.

      Qt-5.12.9-msvc2019(19.27.29111)-x86_64 is build from source, Qt-5.15.1-dynamic-msvc2019-x86_64 is from https://github.com/martinrotter/qt5-minimalistic-builds/releases/tag/5.15.1 .
