I'm using .NET 4.5 on Windows 7, and might find a memory leak.
I have a TextBlock
(not TextBox
- it's not the Undo problem), which changes its value every second (CPU usage, time, etc...).
Using .NET Memory Profiler
(and by simply watching task manager) I noticed the memory keeps on growing. To be more accurate, I see more and more live instances of UnmanagedMemoryStream
(I tried GC.Collect()
which obviously didn't do anything).
After some tests, I've found out that this problem appears only when I'm setting the TextBlock
font to a resource font as follows:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type TextBlock}">
<Setter Property="Control.Foreground" Value="#CCCCCC"/>
<Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="pack://application:,,,/MyUIControls;component/./Fonts/#Noto Sans"/>
</Style>
I tried updating the Text
property directly from code or via Binding, it behaves the same for both ways.
Bottom line:
When the FontFamily
is set, instances of UnmanagedMemoryStream
keep on coming (forever) each time I'm updating the text. When I don't (set the FontFamily
property), memory is stable.
(BTW, it happens when I use Label
instead of TextBlock
as well)
It looks like a memory leak but I couldn't find any reference about it.
Any suggestions of how can it be solved?
