Hi! Given the following code:
--------------------------------- WAC.prototype.myFunc = function() { var myString = null; cocoon.sendPageAndWait( ...); myString = new Packages.java.lang.String("a string!"); var length = myString.length(); length = null; myString = null; } --------------------------------- I observed that a reference to the Java string is referenced by the continuation created via sendPageAndWait ... The object graph is as follows: continuation->state(InterpreterState)->vars(Object[])->(NativeJavaObject)->String I also have a screenshot of the object tree available under http://rra.amd.co.at/pics/cont_memleak.gif In our case we have an huge Filestream Object instead of the string, which causes a leak and ultimately crashes the application server. Note that there's NO reference if I comment out the following two lines: --------------------------------- WAC.prototype.myFunc = function() { var myString = null; cocoon.sendPageAndWait( ...); myString = new Packages.java.lang.String("a string!"); //var length = myString.length(); //length = null; myString = null; } --------------------------------- So assignment seems to cause a reference inside the continuation. This happens with Cocoon 2.1.5 Any hints, is this a bug? Thanks, Roman -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
