    Code (CSharp):
    1. A Native Collection has not been disposed, resulting in a memory leak. Enable Full StackTraces to get more details.

    How do I enable Full Stacktraces? which Unity version supports this?

    It doesn't seem to make any difference

    to elaborate: we are looking to find bugs in code we wrote that is leaking native collections. It is a complex system so it is hard to track down the issues without seeing where the collections were created

    Menu Job/Leak Detection/Full Stack Traces (Expensive)
    I'm not sure about leaks before the activation so maybe you'll need to restart the editor after enabled.

    Thanks!

    I still couldn't find it - looks like you have to enable the Entities package explicitly to get this option. Burst and Collections are not enough on their own.

    It's actually the com.unity.jobs package that provides this menu - but com.unity.entities uses it as a dependency, so bringing in Entities will also work.

    I'll write up a bug for us to make the situation better. It's obviously weird that you have to bring in a package to enable debugging something in the core. At minimum, we'll make it a more useful error message. Sorry for the trouble!

    So enabling this stops the error message, but I don't see how to check if/where I have a memory leak

    (Sorry I almost missed this reply.)

    Enabling "full stack traces" should not stop the error message, so I'm confused by this behavior change. All that option does is capture a stack trace on the construction of every object that can be leaked. If a leak is detected, this stack trace is dumped as part of the report.

    "Full stack traces" shouldn't have any effect on leak detection, just leak reporting detail.
