I am trying to find a memory leak in one of my plugins. I tried both the
YourKit and JProfiler tools. In the views of the live objects, I can see
a class which should have gotten garbage collected. I now want to take a
snapshot so I can determine which class is holding a reference to the
instance. However, when I take my snapshot, I can't see any instance of
the class or any other classes in that package. I can see some classes in
the java.lang package and instances of my plugin management classes.

I think I may need to enable profiling for the classes implementing my
plugin or perhaps the plugin loader or Eclipse JVM is not configured
properly to enable snapshots.

Has anyone been able to successfully take snapshots and see instances of
their classes loaded by plugins?

Thanks
Carolyn
