[Geotools-gt2-users] Removing Context, Layer or FeatureCollection to release memory

[P Fincar]

Hi, I'm working in an application that load geographic features on demand, and I'm having problems when trying to remove features to get free memory.

 

I've tried code like this, because I don't know if removeLayer remove FeatureCollections automatically, but I don't realize the application use less memory when doing it. Is there any way to remove al layers and features linked to a context to make JVM release memo? Any idea???

 

    for (int i = 0; i < context.getLayerCount(); i++) {
     (context.getLayer(i)).getFeatureSource().getFeatures().clear();
     context.removeLayer(i);
     //context.removeLayer((MapLayer) context.iterator().next());
    }

 

Thanks very much... Peter
