Registered listeners not getting removed - Leading to memory leak

[Ramkrishna S Vasudevan]

Hi 

 

>From the HBaseAdmin if i try to use apis like tableExists, compact, flush,
closeRegion all creates new CataLogTracker.  Everytime we register a
listener but we dont 

remove the listeners.  

Note that, every catalog tracker creation calls HConnection.getConnection().

On continuous run of admin apis this is leading to memory leak.  Correct me
if am wrong.  

 

Any suggestions on this on how to clear the listeners?

 

Regards

Ram
