Application memory leak detection method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses an application memory leak detection method and an application memory leak detection device, and relates to the field of electronic information. The method comprises the following steps: the memory occupation information and application state information of a target application are obtained; when it is determined that a memory detection operation needs tobe triggered according to the memory occupation information of the target application, whether the current state of the target application is an idle state or not is judged according to the obtained application state information of the target application; If the current state of the target application is an idle state, the target application is controlled to generate a memory mirror image file soas to detect whether memory leakage occurs in the target application or not according to the memory mirror image file. According to the method, the problem of application jamming caused by generationof the mirror image file in the application running process can be prevented, and then the problem of memory leakage in the online running environment can be detected in time.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of electronic information, and in particular to a method and device for detecting application memory leaks. Background technique [0002] Memory leak refers to the phenomenon that some objects are not recycled at the end of their life cycle and still occupy memory. Memory leaks are relatively common problems in the application development process. Severe memory leaks will consume a large amount of memory, seriously affect the operation of the application, and even cause memory overflow errors. [0003] In the prior art, in order to detect whether the memory leaks, the application usually generates a memory image file corresponding to the application when encountering a memory overflow error, and uploads the memory image file to the server for the server Analyze memory leaks based on memory image files. [0004] However, the inventor found in the process of implementing the present invention tha...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the inventor found in the process of implementing the present invention that the above-mentioned method in the prior art has at least the following defects: the process of generating the memory image file is very time-consuming, and a large amount of system resources are required to generate the memory image file , therefore, if the application is running at this time, it will cause the application to freeze, thereby affecting the normal use of the user

Therefore, the above detection methods usually cannot be used in the online environment, and can only be used in the test environment, so that the memory leak problem in the online environment of the application cannot be detected in time
