Question

Quick question about ADK and Eclipse, what does this indicator at the bottom right of eclipse that looks like a progress bar that never goes away? Mine usually says "81 of 161" and bounces around but never goes away.

Sorry I know this is a very basic question, but I'm curious what its for.

Cheers,

Solution

It basically displays the heap status; and the trash icon is for garbage collection. If you click on the icon then the system will run the following codes

System.gc();
System.runFinalization();

To turn it off, preferences -> general -> uncheck the "show heap status" checkbox.
