treeview Nodes.Clear() method doesn''t remove the child nodes from memory

[sunny]

Hi,

We have encounted the memory leaking problem in a winform (.net 2.0) based application. one issue found is the syncfusion treeview control doesn't release the child nodes from memory after calling the nodes.clear().
the snipper of the code is as following:
treeView.Nodes.Clear();
In the memory profiler, the nodes object still exist after the call.
But if we remove the nodes one by one as following:
for (int index = treeView.Nodes.Count - 1; index > -1; index--)

{

treeView.Nodes.RemoveAt(index);

}

treeView.Nodes.Clear();

The treeview child nodes will disappear from the memory.

Is this a bug in syncfusion treeview control?

Hi sunny,

We have tested the issue with 4.2.0.37 and later version. We were not able to reproduce the issue. When calling TreeViewAdv.Nodes.Clear() , the memory used by the TreeNodeAdv control released properly. Herewith I have attached the memory snopshots of the TreeNodeAdv control using .Net Memory Profiler. Please let me know the Essential Studio version you are using. This will help us to analyse the issue further.

Hi,

Thanks for the fast response.
There are some difference from your testing and ours:
1) in the application the treenodes are added recursively, so the treeview will have a hierachical tree nodes in multiple level.
2) we are using memory profiler 3.0, and in the result the TreeNodeAdv are shown as "System object[]"(but when you drill down the live objects are treenodeAdv, I believe you are using 2.x version, the result is shown as "treenodeadv[]".

And we are using 4.2.0.37.

I am not sure whether the point 1) make the difference.

Hi,

We will check the issue using .Net Memory Profiler 3.0 and let know the details soon.

Hi,

In my application treeNodeAdv controls memory is released properly but not in the case with your application. So before going to check with .Net memory profiler 3.0, please send me the sample which is having the issue. This will help us to resolve the issue soon.
