Step 1: Setting up a new project
This walk-through will give you an overview of the memory profiling features of ANTS Profiler.
It is based on a demonstration Windows application, ShapePainter.exe, that creates a series of objects and draws them on the screen. The application creates random rectangle, ellipse, and triangle objects, and plots them in the Shape Painter window. Each of the shapes on screen corresponds to an object on the managed heap.
When we launch the Memory Profiler, we need to specify the type of .NET application we want to profile. We select .NET desktop application.
