Thanks, I look forward to the 4.04 release. Any idea how long it will be? I don't suppose you guys have an errata that shows all the known gref leaks? This would be useful for avoiding them, and at least prevent me from chasing red herrings all day.
As for the "other" leak I mentioned with strings, it seems to be related to changing the "text" property of a TextView. as in: "TextView.Text = TranslationLookup(TextView.Text);" Which is something I do whenever the user changes language settings. The translation lookup simply returns an existing string from a dictionary, so it doesn't actually allocate anything. But, this seems to allocate a new GRef, and doesn't free up one. These stale grefs get freed when I launch a new activity, but as long as the main activity still runs, it holds on to it. Although it attempts to free it on each subsequent GC, but then resurrects it again. It will continue to do this over and over. Generally most apps won't care too much as they are not meant to run continuously. However, my app runs 24/7 and eventually will die if it has any leaks. This would be bad. :) Thanks again. -- View this message in context: http://mono-for-android.1047100.n5.nabble.com/Tracking-GlobalReferences-tp5457139p5458167.html Sent from the Mono for Android mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Monodroid mailing list Monodroid@lists.ximian.com UNSUBSCRIBE INFORMATION: http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monodroid
