Hi Mark, For 1, there has been discussion on jigsaw-dev, Remy has given you pointer
For 2 & 3, core-libs-dev is the best place to open up a discussion. Rgds,Rory On 20/01/2017 12:14, Mark Thomas wrote:
Rory, We have a handful of instances where Tomcat currently needs to use reflection which are blocked when running on Java 9. Users can work-around these but it would probably be better if an alternative API was identified / provided to achieve the same results without reflection. There are currently three instances I am aware of. 1. Cleaning direct ByteBuffers To avoid OOME, we need to be able to trigger cleaning of a direct ByteBuffers. The code in question is at [1]. We need a way to trigger DirectByteBuffer.cleaner().clean() via a public API. 2. Cleaning thread local related memory leaks To fix application created memory leaks, we need to be able to clear thread locals associated with a given class loader from a thread. To be able to warn users they have a memory leak in their application, we need to be able to list the thread locals associated with a class loader for a thread. The relevant code is at [2]. 3. Cleaning RMI related memory leaks To fix application created memory leaks, we need to be able to clear RMI objects associated with a given class loader. To be able to warn users they have a memory leak in their application, we need to be able to list the RMI targets associated with a given classloader. The relevant code is at [3]. Any suggestions for alternative public APIs to achieve the same ends gratefully received.
