Re: [cdt-dev] memory leak suspect in GDBBackendCLIProcess and GDBInferio

[Marc Khouzam <marc.khouzam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There has been some major changes since CDT 7.0 in that area of the code.

For example, GDBInferiorProcess does not even exist anymore; instead,

its base class MIInferiorProcess is used directly.  That class was drastically

changed and simplified to support multi-process debugging.

 

I recommend you upgrade to CDT 8.0.2.

Hi,

 

I am behind a memory leak. I am trying to Debug a C program (elf file) using eclipse debugger. I have started qemu-system-arm.exe simulator and started debugging.

 

I have used the GDB Hardware Debugging and Selected an ELF as C/C++ program.

 

When checked the memory usage of eclipse, its keeps increasing. And the classes org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.service.command.GDBBackendCLIProcess and org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.service.command.GDBInferiorProcess are keeps increasing and memory also increasing.

 

I was disconnected/terminated. But these classes keeps increasing by instance and memory usage. Anybody can tell me the reason? Is it a known bug?

 

Thanks in advance
