为什么在Android中使用Activity的简单示例会导致内存泄漏？

Question

I got the following example and Im not sure why this is causing a memory leak? I can not wrap my head around it?!

public class MyLeakActivity extends Activity {

// static reference to evil

   private static final Evil e;   
   public MyLeakActivity() {
     e = new Evil();
   }

private final class Evil {
      }
}

Thanks in advance.

greetings Fabian

Take a look here ... this article is geared toward Android development.

• Avoid using non-static inner classes in your Activities, use a static inner class and make a WeakReference.

I think your design might never allow the enclosing class to be gc'd. Unless you have a very good reason to use a non-static inner class (maybe for scope reasons,) a good rule of thumb is to always begin with the inner class declared as static.

在创建新对象之前，您应该检查 e == null 是否。
