Can ANYONE spot the memory leak??

Hi, I have some code here, and there is a SERIOUS memory leak. Basically, I realized the leak was there when a report tried to execute this 100,000+ times and it bogged the system down to a crawl. Can anyone spot the leak? I will explain the variables below the code:
char* getDescription(char* chFlag, char* chDEID, char* chKey, int keysize)
//first, we need to allocate new Byte arrays....
jbyteArray JchFlag = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,1);
jbyteArray JchDEID = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,2);
jbyteArray JchKey = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,40);
//next, we need to put the correct info in those byte arrays....
(*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchFlag,0,1,(jbyte*)chFlag); (*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchDEID,0,2,(jbyte*)chDEID); (*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchKey,0,40,(jbyte*)chKey);
getDescriptionID =(*env1)->GetMethodID(env1,myjclass,"getDescription","([B[B[BI)Ljava/lang/String;");
result              =(jstring)((*env1)->CallObjectMethod(env1,myjobject,getDescriptionID,JchFlag,JchDEID,JchKey,keysize))  ;   
    returnvalue = NULL;
    if(result == NULL)
       strcpy(holder1, "**********Error Finding Description**********");
    else { //now, we convert the jstring to a char *, so we can return the proper type...                       
            returnvalue=(char*)((*env1)->GetStringUTFChars(env1,result,&isCopy)) ;
            strcpy(holder1,returnvalue);           
            if(isCopy == JNI_TRUE)                    
                (*env1)->ReleaseStringUTFChars(env1,result,returnvalue);                         
(*env1)->DeleteLocalRef(env1,result);
return holder1;
//return description;
}//end getDescription function
-myjclass is global, it gets its value in the initialization.
-any variables that are not declared in this function are, of course, globally defined.

Hello Friends,
I had also tried to use the ReleaseStringUTFChars after making the check of whether it does a copy or not.
For me in Windows, it works fine most of the time. But when I go on increasing the no. of strings in a Vector of objects to more than 500 or something , then it occasionally fails.
Just before ReleaseStringUTF, I do have the copied string in char* .
Soon after Releasing, I do get a junk in the character array.
I dont know why it happens like this.
Please advice.
Everyone suggest ReleaseStringUTF.
But why it fails in Windows.
And any one know about how it will behave in Alpha.
It totally fails in Alpha.
I could not get the string at all.
Please help

  • Can't find the memory leak in Managed Object

    Hey guys...I am trying to find the memory leak that Instruments says I have in this section of code setting up a managed object:
    oCurrentSection = (Section*) [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:@"Section" inManagedObjectContext:[[CoreDataManager sharedData] oManagedObjectContext]];
    oCurrentSection.nsSectionName = [attributeDict objectForKey:@"name"];
    oCurrentSection.nsImgUrl = [attributeDict objectForKey:@"imgURL"];
    oCurrentSection.nsDesc = [attributeDict objectForKey:@"desc"];
    oCurrentSection.iOrder = [NSNumber numberWithInt: [[attributeDict objectForKey:@"order"] intValue]];
    Can anyone help me out?

    Thanks everyone! That makes a lot more sense. Yes, kjon, I do come from windows. But please don't reference my troubled past. Actually, I typically use "ps aux | sort -n +3 | tail -1" rather than simply "ps aux" - I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something by looking at only the top memory-user. Glad to know there's no massive memory leak in my system

    It means you declare your method to return something, but you don't actually return anything.

  • Can anyone spot the syntax error of db delete?

    Hi
    I'm trying to get a database delete statement to work for a relations table - it just has studentId and courseId as foreign keys which make up a joint primary key.
    The line is
    db.update("delete from enrollments2 where (studentsid = '" + getStudentId() + "," + " coursesid = " +  getCourseId() + "')");The error is
    ERROR: invalid input syntax for integer: "78, coursesid = 75"Somehow I am putting non integer into an integer... I can't seem to spot the mistake though. Any help would be appreciated.

    The correct syntax I should mention was
    db.update("delete from enrollments2 where (studentsid = '" + getStudentId() + "'and coursesid = '" +  getCourseId() + "')");I'll leave that in for the time being and try to come back to it tonight... its on my todo list.
    Thanks for the snippet by the way, it always saves a lot of time when someone provides a useful snippet towards a solution. I hadn't heard of prepared statements until now too, interesting.

  • Can anyone spot the problem?

    Hey i've been workin on an applet which accepts two boolean equations with 3 variables and returns an answer telling if they are logically equal. When it comes to the PLUS and MINUS cases the program works fine. However in the TIMES and DIVIDE cases it returns at least one wrong answer, despite the fact i'm using the logical AND gate. For example if i enter x*y the program returns
    answer 1 = O, when (x,y)=(0,0)
    answer 2 = 1, when (x,y)=(1,0)
    answer 3 = O, when (x,y)=(0,1)
    answer 4 = 1, when (x,y)=(1,1)
    were answer 2 is wrong using an AND gate.
    Here is the for loop which passes the values
                 for (int y = 0; y < 2; y++)
                   for (int x = 0; x < 2; x++)
                       int d = MyParser.answer(x, y);
                       int doub = MyParser2.answer(x, y);
                       String eq = "";
                       if (d == doub) {
                         equal++;
                         count++;
                         eq = "equal\t";
                       else {
                         count++;
                         eq = "not equal";
                       tb1.append("\nAnswer was " + d + "\t " + eq + " " +

    I'm not even entirely certain what you are trying to accomplish here.
    It looks wrong in any case.
    I can't see anything in the way of debugging, so heres my help for today:
    public void printCode(){
          System.out.println(equation + ":");
          for(int i=0; i<code.length; i++){
            switch(code){
    case PLUS: System.out.print("Plus "); break;
    case MINUS: System.out.print("Minus "); break;
    case TIMES: System.out.print("TIMES "); break;
    case DIVIDE: System.out.print("DIVIDE "); break;
    case UNARYMINUS: System.out.print("-"); break;
    case VARIABLEX: System.out.print("x "); break;
    case VARIABLEY: System.out.print("y ");break;
    case VARIABLEZ:System.out.print("z ");break;
    System.out.println();
    I suggest you parse a couple of expressions, and print out the code generated using this handy little method.
    Parse parse = new Parse("x+y");
    parse.printCode();       
    parse = new Parse("x*y");
    parse.printCode();(x+y) : x y Plus
    (x*y) : x
    I think you will find the problem in your parseExpress method (well one of your problems anyway)
    Also take a look at your ParseTerm function - I'm pretty sure that a * is meant to represent "TIMES" and not "PLUS"
    Did you ever thing about using switch statements rather than ifs?
    Good luck,

    This AppleScript is designed to copy the Name and Artist of an iTunes track, then populate the Album Artist field with both, separated with an oblique. But when I run the script in iTunes, it only pastes the Artist name in to the Album Artist field and not the whole string.
    tell application "iTunes"
    if selection is not {} then -- if tracks are selected...
    set sel to selection
    set numTracks to (length of sel)
    set s to "s"
    if numTracks is 1 then set s to ""
    display dialog "Adds the name of the track and the name of the artist to the Album Artist field." & return & return & (numTracks & " track" & s & " selected.") buttons {"Cancel", "Continue"} default button 2 with title "Create Album Artist" giving up after 30
    if gave up of result is true then return
    repeat with t from 1 to numTracks
    tell contents of item t of sel
    set {album artist} to ({get artist} & " / " & {get name})
    end tell
    end repeat
    else
    display dialog "No tracks have been selected." buttons {"Cancel"} default button 1 with icon 0 giving up after 30
    end if -- no selection
    end tell

    Hello
    Try -
    tell item t of sel
    set album artist to (get artist) & " / " & (get name)
    end tell
    instead of -
    tell contents of item t of sel
    set {album artist} to ({get artist} & " / " & {get name})
    end tell
    In your original code, the left and right value of assignment are both list, i.e. -
    left value = {album artist}
    right value = {get artist, "/", get name}
    Consequently 'album artist' is assigned to the 1st item of the list at right, which is the result of 'get artist'.
    In order to avoid this, don't use list assingment, which is not necessary at all here.
    Also, I think you may just tell item t of sel, not contents of item t of sel.
    Hope this may help,
    H

  • How to quickly and accurately find out the memory leak points?

    Hi, all.I have added a option -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError in the bootstarp script of my application.
    The application has been run for one day and the OOM error was thrown again. So I downloaded the hprof file and used MAT to parse it.
    But after seeing the leak suspects I still have no idea what's wrong and what's the possible leak point.
    Can anyone shard some experience how to find out the memory leak points quickly and accurately?
    It would be more nice if you can take a loot at the leak supects.
    Thanks,
    SuoNayi

  • Can Java program cause memory leak?

    Can Java program cause memory leak or memory crash? I don't mean any memory overflow related exceptions. I mean something like core dump in UNIX or error reports in Windows XP.
    If it can really happen, in what circumstances? I raise such a question because our J2EE based system had really caused memory leak in Windows XP systems, but so far we still fail to troubleshoot the problem.

    Your code may leak memory. There are many, many, many reasons this could be. All of them represent bugs in your code.
    You should get a profiler to identify the problem spots of your code.
    You spoke of a memory crash as well. The VM may crash with some bug in the VM, or a bug in native code but that is not relevent to your problem. A memory leak is a problem in your code.

  • Problems with Overlay Layout - can anyone spot something wrong/missing?

    Hi folks, I'm developing a tool that allows you to draw rectangles around objects on an image. The rectangles are then saved, and you can move between images. For some reason, though my rectangles are not drawing on the panel. I am using the Overlay Layout. Can anyone spot what I'm doing wrong? (The TopPanel canvas appears to be there, as it's taking input from the mouse - the problem is simply that the red rectangles are not drawing on the panel). Please help!!
    So you know, there is a JFrame in another class which adds an instance of the ObjectMarker panel to it. It also provides buttons for using the next and previous Image methods.
    Any other general advice is appreciated too.

    Alright so I fixed it! I created a new class called BottomPanel extends JPanel, which I then gave the responsibility of drawing the image. I gave it an update method which took the details of the currentImage and displayed it on the screen.
    If anybody's interested I also discovered/solved a problem with my mouseListener - I couldn't drag backwards. I fixed this by adding tests looking for negative widths and heights. I compensated accordingly by reseting the rectangle origin to e.getX(), e.getY() and by setting the to original_origin.x - e.getX() and original_origin.y - e.getY().
    No problem!

  • [InDesign CS3] how to find the reason of the memory leaks?

    Hi all,
    I'm working with InDesign CS3. I wrote a plug-in and loaded it into InDesign in debug mode. After I closed the application, I got a console window showing memory leaks as following:

    Press any key to continue . . .
    Does anybody know how to find the reason of the memory leaks? Thanks a lot!

    Change public int makeMove() into: public void makeMove()
    and the compiler will keep quiet (or finds more things to complain about)

  • How to define the memory leak in stability test

    Hi
    Usually, we run our system with 70% CPU load for 72 hours for stability test (on solaris 10), because some plugin of our system is using mtmalloc, and we use prstat to monitor the memory of each plugin. But because of the complex memory usage of our application, we don't know when the application will use the Max memory, and because of the "mtmalloc", the memory showed by "prstat" will not released but continually increased.
    So fro the test point of view, there is the risk of memory leak, but actually, there may be no memory leak, so my question is how to define the memory leak in such condition.

    isn't java heap the same as memory allocated to the java process in my weblogic
    starup script ?The heap is sized by the -Xmx and -Xms parameters you pass on the java
    command-line. The permanent generation is separate.

    I'd start by running with -verbose:gc. I'd want to know whether you're
    running out of heap or permgen space.

    Unfortunately memory leaks are not fun to track down even with tools.
    I'd first suggest determining whether you're running out of space in
    the
    permanent area (where classes are loaded), or you've exhausted the java
    help space.
    I'd start by adding -verbose:gc. Look at the gc messages right before
    you hit the OutOfMemoryError. If there's plenty of space left, I'd
    suspect you're running out of perm space. Search these newsgroups and
    the web for MaxPermSize, and you should see plenty of info.
    If you're running out of java heap, tools like jprobe and OptimizeIt
    are
    helpful. If you can tell me a little more about your application and
    how you're testing it, I can offer some more tips.

    If somebody can let me know how to interpret and understand the memoryleak, that

  • Whether our application caused the memory leak

    whether have the command to find out whether our application caused the memory leak !
    We are using Jdev10g + JHeadstart(Release 9.0.5.1, BC4J + Struts + JSP) to build our enterprise application,
    but when the application running some days in our Application Server(RedHat AMD64, with 8GB RAM), the memory consumed was growth seriously in production environment (one OC4J instance will caused almost 2G memory ulilization after running 2 days) that is caused us to restart the instance each day ! we doubt and worry
    about maybe our application suffer the memory leak problem, so we want to know have the command to find out whether our application caused the memory leak
    issue and which program is the major murderer for memory.

    Ting,
    Unfortunately there is no 'command' that will show you the location of a memory leak. First I would scrutinizing your code for any obvious 'leaks'. Then, you should obtain some statistics about the usage of your system. One important aspect is how long a HttpSession usually lives. If you have thousands of users that stay online the entire day and never 'time out', and if you have users on the system 24 hours a day, then the sheer number of HttpSessions might be a problem.
    JHeadstart 9.0.x tends to have rather 'heavy' session objects. This can easily be solved by adding some actions to clear up DataObjects and DataObjectSets of previous 'Groups' when entering a new Group. A good place would be between the 'DynamicActionRouter' and the 'ActionRouters'. Just before entering the 'EmployeeActionRouter', you could remove all DataObjects and DataObjectSets that might be left on the Session by actions of the other ActionRouters.
    Also it would be interesting to see if the garbage collector can do its thing when the system is less busy. For instance, if your application has a smaller load during the weekend, what is the memory usage on Sunday at midnight compared to, say, Friday at noon. Has the memory load dropped consistently with the decreased number of online users, or does too much memory stay allocated? If so, then there's more going on than just HttpSession objects.
    If all this does not lead to a solution, I suggest using a profiling tool such as OptimizeIt to investigate the memory usage of the application in detail.
    Kind regards,
    Peter Ebell
