Heap walker - Reference view

The heap walker reference view conforms to the basic layout of all heap walker views. Also see the help on key concepts for the entire heap walker.

The reference view of the heap walker offers three view modes that can be changed in the combo box at the top of the view:

Reference graph
Shows graphs of references for all objects in the current object set.
Cumulated incoming references
Shows a table of the cumulated references that hold the objects in the current object set.
Cumulated outgoing references
Shows a table of the cumulated references that originate from objects in the current object set.

The reference view helps you to find memory leaks. Please note the "Show path to GC root" functionality in the reference graph for this purpose.
