IRB with readline "leaks" streams, leaving GC to clean them up
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-4791
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-4791
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.5
Reporter: Charles Oliver Nutter
Assignee: Charles Oliver Nutter
Fix For: JRuby 1.6
This was reported in JRUBY-4767 in this comment:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-4767?focusedCommentId=221014&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_221014
The problem is that jline (our readline library) opens but never closes two
streams from a subprocess exec. They eventually get closed when GC runs, but
until then they linger.
I've committed a fix to jline and this will be fixed once we have a jline
release out and updated in JRuby.
