Memory leaks

[Guest_imported]

Hi,

I have created a little chat application but I have a problem with it. I think it's leaking memory.

I use a loop to read all the data that the clients send me (With inStream.readUTF() )

I don't created new objects so I don't know WHY it's allocating new memory every time it get a msg from a client.

Anyone has an idear??

Thnx in advance

Everytime a string is created, memory is being allocated. It could be that instead of using the String class, you should use the StringBuffer class. Without knowing a lot more about the App it is hard to say.
