I am trying to locate leaks using instruments, but the leaks I see there

  • 0

I am trying to locate leaks using instruments, but the leaks I see there are like the ones in the next picture:

leaks

As you can see there’s no information of which line of code is exactly leaking. All leaks I have, around 20, are like this, or in other words, the leaks don’t show any line of my code in particular.

The leak in this picture is related to “_CFAllocatorSystem” (???) on the CoreFoundation and I have others that simply say GSEvent. I have no clue of what’s generating these.

How can I discover that?

thanks for any help.

    I think you want to go into instruments after running under leak and select “Source View”. Then you need to drag your source files into the instrument window. It will then show the lines in the code where the leak occurs along with the call stack.

    Some toss off code of mine leaks a view. It looks like this in Instruments:
