I have noticed that I have a memory leak in my program.
I have traced the problem to the line.
Clock.setText("" + h + ":" + df.format(m) + ":" + df.format(s));
I have googled this and it seems to be a common problem but I have not found an answer.
Does anyone know a fix?
Here is the entire code:

Your program looks OK to me. Note how periodic GC returns to baseline. In contrast, this example leaks host resources. At most, you might consider using StringBuilder
or MessageFormat
in your setText()
invocation.
Here is the output of a slightly altered version of the code.
