---------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry ... but now we need a test case to reproduce this new error.
My fear on the current (applied) workaround 2 was the clear of existing
listeners that is causing problems now, so I think it would be better to remove
the problematic part of that workaround.
So now probably the workaround 1 could be a better solution (a little more
complex than the other, but more general).
I know that probably there is something which is not cleared in the right way
before going out of scope, but didn't get the right point after debugging it a
lot ... maybe for 2.1 we could add something to better debug listener-related
things.
What do youn think ?

> When a window or dialog is opened which has an icon, after it is closed it
> cannot be garbage collected because a reference is retained to it through the
> icon. Removing the icon resolves the issue.
> As far as I've investigated, the issue appears to the in the
> ImageListenerList which each Image contains. I've done a heapdump of my
> application and used the IBM HeapAnalyzer which shows this list containing a
> reference to the window/dialog through the ImageViewSkin, but I don't know
> the Pivot internals well enough to see where or how it should be released.
> I'll attach a simple test application to show the issue.
