Inspectopedia 2024.3 Help

Large array allocation with no OutOfMemoryError check

Reports large array allocations which do not check for java.lang.OutOfMemoryError. In memory constrained environments, allocations of large data objects should probably be checked for memory depletion.

This inspection is intended for Java ME and other highly resource constrained environments. Applying the results of this inspection without consideration might have negative effects on code clarity and design.
