finding memory leaks in perl objects

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

This module provides tracking of objects, for the purpose of detecting memory leaks due to circular references or inappropriate caching schemes. Object tracking can be enabled on a per object basis. Any objects thus tracked are remembered until DESTROYed; details of any objects left are printed out to STDERR at END-time. Of particular interest is use Devel::Leak::Object qw{ GLOBAL_bless }; which overrides CORE::bless to give a full tally of all objects at END {}.
