Why there is another application called Leaks installed on the Android device when I use ZXing Bar code Library ?

问题

I have an application that uses ZXing Barcode Scanner library, but when I run the application on the device, there is another additional application installed called "Leaks". Why is this application installed on the device ? When I open it nothing happens ?

回答1:

It's an application called leak canary.

// For development purposes only
// https://github.com/square/leakcanary
debugCompile 'com.squareup.leakcanary:leakcanary-android:1.3.1'
releaseCompile 'com.squareup.leakcanary:leakcanary-android-no-op:1.3.1'

Remove these lines from build.gradle file if you have them.

You should also have this line LeakCanary.install(this); in your activity file and you should remove it as well.
