How to capture heap memory usage while running an Android app?

I built a video player app for Android. Now I'd like to capture info about its runtime (heap) memory usage.

Are there tools that I can use to capture and inspect this information? I'm using Eclipse to develop my app; does it have any features or plugins that make this easy?

In Android Studio on the tool window Android, there is a button called Dump Java Heap

If you are still using Eclipse, you can open DDMS in the android sdk tools. You'll find a Dump HPROF file button. Then you use hprof-conv in sdk tools to convert the file format.

If you wanna dump heap in code, you can use this method Debug.dumpHprofData(String fileName).
