RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.

Hopefully your code is:
updateComplete=this.callLater(setVerticalScrollBarMethod);

Depending on what that code does, it might use a bunch of memory, but if it 
gets freed later, it isn't a leak.  The profiler will help you determine if 
there really is a leak.

Subject: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.


Hi Guyz,
I have a viewstack holding two DG's. When I double click on an item in first
DG, it should switch to the second DG and select the corresponding item in
that DG and scroll down to that item.

If I set verticalscrollbarposition something like..
updateComplete=this.callLater(setVerticalScrollBarMethod());

It causes a lot of memory leak until unless it is switched to the final
view(2nd DG with highlighted item.)
Can anyone tell me what I can use as an alternative to updateComplete ??

RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.

2009-02-09 Thread Manu Dhanda

Yes, am using the same line of code.
updateComplete=this.callLater(setVerticalPosition);

private function setVerticalPosition():void{
productsGrid.verticalScrollPosition =
getVerScrollPos(productsGrid.selectedItems);//which returns an int.
}

Now when I use profiler to see the memory use. The bar depicting the memory
use keep on going up, drops all of a sudden then again goes up to a new high
and so on(repeat the same criteria), until user actually switch his view to
the screen having that datagrid. After that it will become a straight
parallel line.

WhereAs if I remove this one line of code, i.e. updateComplete(...) it
achieves that straight parallel line much before and you don't even need to
go to that particular view/screen.

Any workaround or any other solution would be great.

Thanks,
Manu.

Are you saying that afterwards the memory number does not drop back down even 
after you force a garbage collection using the profiler?

If so, use the profiler to see what objects are sticking around.  There's a 
tutorial on how to use it on my blog.

RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.

2009-02-09 Thread Alex Harui
It occurs to me that if you're changing the display in updateComplete you could 
be causing another updateComplete and looping forever.  Set a breakpoint on 
your handler and see how often it gets called.

If I were doing something like this, I'd have a currentSelection property 
somewhere that the first DG sets and the second DG reacts to by binding to it 
and avoid using UI and validation events directly.

RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.

2009-02-09 Thread Manu Dhanda

Selection is fine, as you said, can be done easily.
But I do need UI and event framework for the vertical scroll positioning.

On the other hand, from the profiler, here I do have some interesting
figures:

Memory Snapshot(in couple of minutes interval) 
Loitering Objects

WeakMethodClosure | flash.events | Instances:48914(98.43%) |
Memory:782624(83.87%) //with updateComplete

WeakMethodClosure | flash.events | Instances:2(2.25%) | Memory:32(0.23%)
//without updateComplete


Same steps being followed for two parallel instances of same app run and it
returned me above noticeable figures. A couple more lines were there(with
more objects), but this one is noticeable.

-Manu.

RE: [flexcoders] DataGrid updateComplete causes lots of memory leak.

2009-02-09 Thread Alex Harui
You can look at the allocation stack trace to see where those come from.  
WeakMethodClosures can generate false-postives in the profiler so it may just 
be a false alarm.  I don't know why you would need to hook UI or input events 
directly to do vertical scroll positioning.  The secondary view should pull its 
viewstate from a central data model, then you don't need to push information 
into the view and worry about when it is ready.
