Memory usage does not go down. Help with Memory Leak

@bpran:

Your problem is memory leaks right?
Why not try my suggestion to remove the event listener when you leave the scene?
(line 86)

And line 108 , storyboard.removeScene doesn’t work on active scene.

[lua]local prior_scene = storyboard.getPrevious()
storyboard.purgeScene( prior_scene )[/lua]

Thanks for the reply.

you can call storyboard.removeScene(“nextscenename”)

before calling storyboard.gotoScene(“nextscenename”)

@bpran:

Well, I was able to remove the event listeners. That shaved off some memory! Still looking for more stuff to shave off. Thanks for the suggestion!

@robmiracle:

So I remove it before calling it? I’ll try that out. Thank you for the suggestion!

How about widget buttons, is there some special way of removing their event listeners?

Like for instance:

[lua]local classicButton = widget.newButton{
label = “Classic”,
font = “HelveticaNeue”,
fontSize = 20,
default = “images/menu/menuButton_unpressed.png”,
over = “images/menu/menuButton_pressed.png”,
width = 154,
height = 40,
onRelease = onButtonRelease
}
classicButton.x = _W / 3; classicButton.y = _H / 2
view:insert(classicButton);[/lua]
