[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-262?page=all ]
Henri Yandell updated LANG-262:
-------------------------------
Fix Version: 2.3
(was: 2.2)
In an effort to get 2.2 out sooner rather than later, I'm assiging all the Enum
issues to 2.3. There's been no work on them currently and might be best to
focus on them in a 2.3 release instead of trying to squeeze them into the 2.2
release.
Hopefully this will keep the 2.3 release scope pretty tight.
> Use of enum prevents a classloader from being garbage collected resuling in
> out of memory exceptions.

> Project: Commons Lang
> Type: Bug
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Neil Redway
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.3
>
> When an enum is created it is placed in the static hashmap - cEnumClasses.
> If the enum is created from a classloader which has a limited lifetime then
> due to the strong reference the classloader is never garbage collected
> resulting in a memory leak.
> I believe that making the cEnumClasses a WeakHashMap should resolve the
> problem.
