Avoid use of file.deleteOnExit() - will cause allocation of 1K of memory per
call until JVM terminates
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-1464
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-1464
Project: Geronimo
Type: Bug
Components: Memory Leaks
Versions: 1.0
Reporter: John Sisson
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.1
I haven't run into a memory problem but came across this bug in Sun's bug
database and a number of people warning not to use deleteOnExit() in server
code.
According to http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4513817 each
call to file.deleteOnExit() will allocate 1K of memory until the JVM
terminates. I have not had the chance to verify it, but I have raised this
JIRA in case someone is tracking a memory leak in the future or someone has
time to review our usage of deleteOnExit().
