how to use leakcanary, how to add leakcanary as a jar to build a apk with .mk file

Question

LeakCanary is a memory leak detection library for Android and Java. LeakCanary

My project is based on android make file system, which relies on some android internal

Answer 1

This is needed to be part of your application in order for leakcanary to work.

public class ExampleApplication extends Application {

 @Override public void onCreate() {
  super.onCreate();
  LeakCanary.install(this);
 }
}

but this is confusing because most of us do not write such kind of class that extends the Application class directly, a work around rather a simple statement will fix this problem,

public class YourClass extends Activity{//AppCompatActivity, A  ctionBarActivity or anything

@Override public void onCreate() {
  super.onCreate();
   LeakCanary.install(getApplication());
 }
}

hope this helps!!!

Its better to call this method in

   onPostCreate()
