I have an android app which has native code. The native code needs to get a particular value from java code; this value updates regularly, so I need to get it when I need to use it. I am using JNI to make the call from native code to Java code.
std::string val; JNIEnv* env = JSC::Bindings::getJNIEnv(); jclass bridgeClass = env->FindClass("com.mypackage.MyClass"); jmethodID method = env->GetStaticMethodID(bridgeClass, "getVal", "()Ljava/lang/String;"); val = jstringToStdString(env, static_cast<jstring>(env->CallStaticObjectMethod(bridgeClass, method))); env->DeleteLocalRef(bridgeClass);
I make this call very often (almost 100 times a minute), and I am facing the following exception:
E/dalvikvm( 1063): JNI ERROR (app bug): local reference table overflow (max=512) W/dalvikvm( 1063): JNI local reference table (0xcc8590) dump: W/dalvikvm( 1063): Last 10 entries (of 512): W/dalvikvm( 1063): 511: 0x413c7e70 java.lang.String "ABC" W/dalvikvm( 1063): 510: 0x40a39470 java.lang.Class<android.util.Log> W/dalvikvm( 1063): 509: 0x413c8558 java.lang.String "9287391238192...

All the similar questions online have the common answer that more resources need to be freed. Can anyone tell what other resources can I free in this case?
Thanks.
