> As written in http://markmail.org/message/zelumstxxsdyvkcz , after the merge
> of the Temp_URI_Resolution branch (Sept 2012), the actual pattern of using
> temp files has changed from:
> File tmpFile = File.createTempFile(....);
> // Write and read from the file
> tmpFile.delete();
> to:
> File tmpFile = new File(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"),
> counterStartingFrom1AsString);
> tmpFile.deleteOnExit();
> // Write and read from the file
> This is fine when FOP is executed from the command line (which I guess this
> is how most people use it) but it introduces a number of bad side effects for
> long running processes that use FOP embedded.
>
> 1. Different FOP processes can't be executed in parallel on the same system
> because creating the same temp file fails.
> 2. If the JVM is not normally terminated, the temp files are never deleted
> and the next invocation of the JVM fails to run.
> 3. deleteOnExit() keeps for the life of the JVM an unknown number of temp
> files both on disk and a reference in memory.
> There should not be a need to implement a custom resource resolver when using
> FOP embedded in order to fix those issues. The default implementation should
> work at least as good as it worked in FOP 1.1 or earlier.
> Attached are 2 patches, one for XGC and one for FOP that should fix and
> improve the handling of at least the temporary files.
> For reference, [1] lists some reasons for implementing the new URI resource
> resolvers.
