Debug module to find where perl objects (or arrays, hashes and globs)
|
|
are created by checking for objects passed to and/or returned from subs,
|
|
and monitoring when they are destroyed via destructor subs. This can
|
|
help detect memory leaks caused by objects being left behind in your
|
|
programs when they shouldn't be.
|
|
|
|
The main output is stored in a file which logs the first time a memory
|
|
reference is seen with datetime, current session number (starts at 1),
|
|
object type, call stack etc., and whether the object was first seen
|
|
returned from a sub or passed as an argument. Details are also logged
|
|
whenever an object is destroyed. This includes the datetime, session
|
|
and call stack when the object was created.
|
|
|
|
The subroutine Devel::ObjectTracker::output_details outputs details on
|
|
the currently existing objects on demand. These details contain
|
|
date/time, session, call stack, etc. when the object was created.
