[news.eclipse.tools.hyades] Re: Number of Collected items are 0

Hi Lars,

Hmm.. I'm not sure why this would be happening. It sounds like a bug on the data collection side. Which platform and version of Hyades are you using? I'll see if I can reproduce it...

Thanks,
Curt

Hi,

I have been using Hyades for Java profiling. But I think there is some
random behaviour when
using the memory leak analysis. Sometimes the 'collected items' fields (e.g.
the number of objects
that have been GC:d) are updated and sometime (most of the time) the field
remains 0. Active instances fields are however
always updated. Forcing a GC from Eclpse does not have any effect.

The obvious reason would be if the JVM that I'm profiling have not run GC or
that there is a serious memory leak in my
application. But I have run the JVM with GC trace enabled and GC kicks in
every now and then. And since the fields are 0
for all objects I think that Eclipse has not recieved any collected
information.

Perhaps there is some issue with the different generations (new etc) in the
JVM that prevents GC from collecting my objects or is there somethingelse
that controls this behaviour.

Any help appreciated

Lars
