CachedItem is reused

                 Key: DERBY-2700
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2700
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Services
    Affects Versions: 10.2.2.0, 10.2.1.6, 10.3.0.0
            Reporter: Knut Anders Hatlen
         Assigned To: Knut Anders Hatlen


When an entry in the cache manager becomes invalid (for instance because a 
table is dropped), it cannot be garbage collected because we only set the 
valid_ field in CachedItem to false. We should also set entry to null to make 
the Cacheable eligible for garbage collection. Currently, invalid cached 
objects cannot be garbage collected until their CachedItems are reused. This 
causes Derby to hold on to resources too long, and can in the worst case lead 
to an OutOfMemoryError.
