[Source] How to find memory leaks.

[Meteorite]

Note : You will need NetBeans for this

1). Open up NetBeans, at the top click on the tab 'Profile'
2). Click on Attach Profiler, you should get something like this :

3). On the left side of the GUI, click on Memory
4). Make the settings look like this :

5). You'll see something like this after you click on 'Profile'

6). Oh nuu! There's no processes, don't worry, now start up your server.

7). Awesome, I'm so l337 I got processes now.

8). I'm going to profile Channel Server, because most memory leaks are within the Channel Server, for MapleStory at least.

9). Check your launch_channel.bat, you'll see something like this :

10). Refer back to NetBeans and you should see something like this :


You do not need to worry, unless the 'Generations' go above 20 or so, then you know that there's a memory leak. To check where the memory leak is, just double click the 'Class Name' and you've found your memory leak.

I removed memory leaks all the time, but I never knew what it does what happens?

How can you remove memory leaks if you don't know what they do? You can't fix something you don't know about.

I disagree you can fix something even if you don't know how to, you just have to be lucky, i fix shit with ought knowing anything.
When i didn't know anything about computers i reset my windows,replaced hard drive, and mother board with no problems what so ever.
But i mean you just have to be lucky.

No... no you can't. You still need to know what it is because you wouldn't know if you fixed it if you don't know what it is.

Well for memory leaks yes, i agree with you 100% but not for everything :)

Give an example then. Unclosed connections are not memory leaks btw. In short time, Java closes it by itself.

Okay I will give an example....if you are clueless.
Okay, you don't need to know how to breath its just something you do. Another one, you don't have to know how to know what scripting is, if you set up a server. Now stfu

Nice example... You're right though. You don't need to know how to code at all to set up a server. If you've been in the section longer than a week, you'd realize that from half the threads created. You do need to know how to code to fix something, because you can't fix something that you don't even have enough knowledge about to know what it is. That's like me saying I can build a time machine when I don't even know how to build a bike. Do you see your logic?

No, you can't fix what you don't know. How would you fix a memory leak if you don't know what you fixed? Give an example of a memory leak you fixed and tell why it's a memory leak, and why your fix works.

You have surely no idea what a memory leak is.

I agreed that some times in programming, by trying to fix something, you may also fix another without it being your 'target'. However, to know that you fixed another thing you must know beforehand that it was broken before, else, for you it was always fixed. In this case, if you have no idea what memory leak is, how you know you even fixed it? That's like saying you won the lottery without a ticket.

You're fucking retarded. GTFO
