Sleak SWT tool, Device is not tracking resource allocation

Question

I'm having trouble in testing an RCP application with Sleak because it does not display anything, it only shows the message "WARNING: Device is not tracking resource allocation". I've setup Sleak from this tutorial and I don't know what's wrong. Does anyone know a solution for this? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Do you have the correct version? Can you see the sleak view in your RCP-application? If not make sure it's in your launch configuration. Also double check that you have set the

org.eclipse.ui/debug=true org.eclipse.ui/trace/graphics=true

correct in the tracing tab. There are properties with similar names.

Answer 2

You can write

org.eclipse.ui.internal.misc.Policy.DEBUG_SWT_GRAPHICS = true;
org.eclipse.ui.internal.misc.Policy.DEBUG_SWT_DEBUG = true;

before

Display display = PlatformUI.createDisplay();

This will create in Workbench.createDisplay() method new Display with data tracking.
