Question

I’m trying to load windowed sub-application in another windowed application, The requirement is to replace one loaded application with another on user action.

I tried the documented method of unloadAndStop() on the swfLoader in the main windowed application, but somehow during memory profiling I could see the instances of those applications were maintained in the memory even after explicitly running garbage collection.

Where as If I make those windowed application as modules, and then try to load them using the Moduleloader things work smoothly and unloaded modules are removed from memory.

Any one faced the same issue before ?

It’s a Flex SDK Bug.
