AS3, AIR and garbage collection

comments closed April 23rd 2008 | by James

Sean Christmann has posted a really useful document on ActionScript 3, AIR and the Flash player garbage collection. Sean is part of the team that built the eBay desktop AIR application. The article explains in detail the problems they had with AIR releasing memory back to the OS, then discusses how they have coded solutions to the problems. An interesting read, aimed more at the problems faced when deploying large scale production apps using Adobe Flex 3 in AIR.
