Memory Leak in OpenGL / JOGL
Mar 5th, 2006, 6:39pm  
I'm experiencing a memory leak and I think I've narrowed it down to the OpenGL libary or JOGL. Am running processing as classes from Eclipse and got a crash after many hours testing (out of memory) so I've profiled the code (JProfiler) and it's showing a growing number of java.nio.DirectByteBuffer instances. If I don't use OPENGL in the setup() method it goes away (but I need to use OpenGL). have tested with other sketches and I'm failry sure this is where the problem lies. I have an installation going up tomorrow which will be running for a week so it's bound to crash if I don't find a fix quick.. It's a long shot, but if anyone can help ppplease post here asap (or email philworthy@gmail.com))..  will post a bug as soon as I have time.. Thanks a million. -p

this bug comes from creating a lot of new image instances inside draw(). see the bug report:
