A question for those java - Coldfusion experts: When an object is instantiated with the statement
<cfset pointToThisObject=objectName.methodName()>, the 'pointToThisObject' contains only the pointer address to the instantiated object in memory. It appears that Coldfusion is not releasing the memory space and leaving a "vague" reference to the java object. Being that this may be the case, the memory is strinking which is causing a 'java.lang.OutOfMemoryError' to occur. The java memory space is strinking when multiple users (client workstations) are using the application. Is there a way to destroy or release this memory space? I have tried <cfset pointToThisObject = ""> but it only clears the pointer but not the memory space. Also, would you know how to determine what the memory usage would be within Coldfusion during the before and after an object is instantiated? Please help...I would hope that Coldfusion would be able to handle its own garbage collection when referencing java objects. talk soon - Kinley ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
