[RUNUO] Tools for Memory Leaks analysis

Hi all,

I'm not so familiar with C# tools actualy.
What tool can I use to detect the memory leaks of scripts?
How to use it? Any additional compilation option?

I used purify in C++ on unix before, I would like to know if there are similiar tools.

Thank you!

You can use Windows Debugger (windbg) with the son of strike extensions (SOS.dll, comes with .NET).

You can also use the Performance monitor to watch basic statistics about the garbage collector and allocation patterns.

Mono has some built in debugging tools if you are on a Linux system.


EDIT: No special modification of RunUO is neccessary, but windbg must attach or launch the process. Additionally, windbg can be very complex, so use !help frequently. The most useful features are stack traces, watching threads, dumping stack and heap, tracing exceptions, but there are many others.

SOS is a debugger extension DLL designed to aid in the debugging of managed
programs. Functions are listed by category, then roughly in order of
importance. Shortcut names for popular functions are listed in parenthesis.
Type "!help <functionname>" for detailed info on that function.
