Hi Alex, I'm analyzing a simple case, where an About popup dialog is closed but several of the objects used are still in memory.
In this case, the About class inherits from TitleWindow, which inherits from UIComponent. I take memory snapshots before opening the popup and after closing it. I can see an instance of the class still in memory according to Loitering Objects. When I inspect the Object References to it, there are several Function objects created from addEventListener(). Three of these Function objects were created from UIComponent, as seen in the Allocation Trace window. So, my understanding is that there are 3 Function objects which reference my About object, and in order to free them, they should be destroyed with a removeEventListener() by UIComponent. Is that right, or they won't be counted as references by the garbage collector...? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-development.2333347.n4.nabble.com/UIComponent-not-removing-its-event-listeners-tp51608p51661.html Sent from the Apache Flex Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
