While Java’s garbage collection handles most memory-related tasks automatically, developers still need to be aware of certain patterns and practices that can lead to memory leaks. This article explores common scenarios where memory management requires special attention and provides guidelines for writing memory-safe code in Java applications. Patterns here were observed while developing applets, but they should be applicable to any Java application. Static Objects Static objects are treated as singletons and never collected from memory. They can be retained even if the app is destroyed on mobile platforms. If a static object holds reference to other objects, those objects will be retained as well. ...
