ghosh123 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello Monk, I am using Devel::FindRef to find out memory leak in my program. Please explain me the output so that I get a clue where to look into. Suppose I have two module say A.pm and B.pm. I am calling a callback function from A.pm when I Delete a job and the body of the function is defined in B.pm . It is like :
A.pm $menu->add('command' , -label => 'Delete', -command => sub {$self->onMenuDelete(@_)} ); ## Above $self is A B.pm sub B ::onmenuDelete { my B $self = shift; my $temp = $self->{business} ; $self->jobdisplayobj->deleteElements(); print Devel::FindRef::track \$temp; } The output is :REF(0xb20ba50) [refcount 2] is +- referenced by REF(0xbe1398c) [refcount 1], which is | a temporary on the stack. +- the lexical '$temp' in CODE(0xb20b900) [refcount 4], which is +- the global &A::onMenuDelete. +- the global &B::onMenuDelete.
Please explain me the above output. I guess there are 2 references of $temp, one is the stack which is the $temp variable itself. Where is the other hanging?
