Doing a deep copy causes memory leak
I am writing an android app and I am using method Mat.clone()
to do a deep clone of one mat to another.
The issue is this is causing a memory leak in my app that automatically closes the app after 10 or so seconds.
I have tried numerous ways to solve the issue, however, some ways have no effect and others just crash the program.
My code for the OpenCV CameraBridgeViewBase.CvCameraViewListener2
, where the memory leak is happening, looks like this.
mOpenCvCameraView.setCvCameraViewListener(new CameraBridgeViewBase.CvCameraViewListener2() {
Mat mRgba;
Mat mask;
@Override
public void onCameraViewStarted(int width, int height) { }
@Override
public void onCameraViewStopped() { }
@Override
public Mat onCameraFrame(CameraBridgeViewBase.CvCameraViewFrame inputFrame) {
mRgba = inputFrame.rgba();
//Way One
mask = new Mat();
mRgba.copyTo(mask); //Causes massive memory leak
//Way 2
//mask = mRgba.clone(); //Same issue
//Way 3
mask = mRgba; //Solves initial issue but causes crash when later trying to modify mRgba
//Way 4 - Same issue as way 3
//mRgba = inputFrame.rgba();
//mask = inputFrame.rgba();
mRgba.release(); //No Effect
//mask.release(); //Few seconds of black then crash
System.gc(); //No Effect
return mask;
}
});
Is there a way to get round this issue?
For those after extra information. I have uploaded a copy of the LogCat information to Paste Bin
