Hello again Flex list,
My team at work has a problem with a memory leak in our application
which we have narrowed down to the clock. We have made a standalone
version of our clock to illustrate the problem (flex3 bug maybe?). Can
anyone explain why this AIR app leaks memory and how to fix it?
Clock.mxml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute"
creationComplete="init();"
>
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
[Bindable]
private var dateAndTime:String;
private var theDate:Date;
private var theTimer:Timer;
private function createTimer():void
{
theTimer = new Timer(1000, 0);
var theEvent:String = TimerEvent.TIMER;
var useCapture:Boolean = false;
var eventPriority:uint = 0;
var useWeakReference:Boolean = true;
theTimer.addEventListener(theEvent, timerListener,
useCapture, eventPriority, useWeakReference);
theTimer.start();
}
private function init():void
{
createTimer();
}
private function timerListener(event:TimerEvent):void
{
theDate = new Date();
dateAndTime = theDate.toLocaleString(); //leak seems
to happen here.
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Label id="dateAndTimeLBL"
text="{dateAndTime}"
right="10"
top="122"
color="#000000"
fontSize="28"
textAlign="center"
width="501"
/>
</mx:WindowedApplication>
Thanks for your input!
David
