Lua-based method and a Lua-based device for obtaining a mobile phone application memory

Abstract

A Lua-based method and a Lua-based device for obtaining a mobile phone application memory is suitable for an application program developed by a Unity engine, and comprises the following steps: initializing a Lua virtual machine to transmit a custom memory distributor to a memory distribution function; when a Lua calls a memory allocation function to allocate a memory block, the memory frequency divider traverses a current C # call stack and a Lua call stack to capture memory information; recording the memory information into a calling path table according to the calling path, and removing a pointer stored with a corresponding calling path when the memory block is released; and exporting the call path table, and sorting each call path according to the total size of the unreleased memory blocks. The invention further discloses a device for obtaining the mobile phone application memory based on Lua. The method has the advantages that the C # calling stack and the Lua calling stack are output in a mixed mode, so that a C # and Lua code calling path occupying more memory can be obtained, and convenience is brought to developers to optimize the C # and Lua code calling path.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile devices, in particular to a method and a device for acquiring mobile phone application memory based on Lua. Background technique [0002] In the smart phone industry, as an important category of mobile phone applications, mobile games have an increasing market share. Most well-known game development companies have invested more in technology research and development in mobile game development. In the development process of mobile games, reducing the memory usage of mobile games has always been one of the most concerned points of mobile application developers. If the game takes up too much memory during the running process, it may be identified as an abnormal process by the operating system and shut down directly, or it may cause system memory due to excessive use, which will reduce system performance and reduce the game experience. [0003] As a widely used mobile game development engine, Unity adopts Mono...

Problems solved by technology

However, in mobile games developed with the Unity engine, the Lua code part and the C# code part generally call each other according to specific applications, so if only the Lua call stack is output, developers often cannot obtain a comprehensive memory call information
