-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Connections opened by ForeignTableVTI never get released
                 Key: DERBY-6440
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6440
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tools
    Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
            Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen


I noticed during a run of suites.All that one database instance never got 
garbage collected, even after it had been shut down. It turned out it could not 
get garbage collected because it was still referenced from the static HashMap 
_connections in ForeignTableVTI. Looking closer at ForeignTableVTI, it looks as 
if it only calls put() and get() on the HashMap, never remove(), so its memory 
footprint will keep increasing as it is used.

It would be good to have some way (preferably automatic) of releasing the 
resources held by ForeignTableVTI when they are no longer needed.
