Jumping to Application Source

If you are using the Memory Leak Detector as an Eclipse plug-in, you can jump from either the Trend tab or the Allocation Stack Traces tab directly to the source code. A feature called Jump-to-Source allows you not only to see the name of a "problem" class or method displayed in the GUI, but lets you jump from the displayed method or class name directly to that class or method's source, where you can evaluate the code to see what might be causing the problem. This feature extremely is useful in helping you locate and debug coding errors that are creating runtime problems for your application.

To jump to the source code
  1. In the Trend Analysis table or the Allocation Stack Trace for... table, right-click the problem method or class to open a context menu.
  2. Select Open Method or Open Type (depending upon what you are jumping from).
  3. The source code appears in a separate editor.
