Simon Kitching resolved DIGESTER-125.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Thanks for pointing this out. The cleanup method has been modified to now clear
the inputSources list (svn commit r665710).
Note, however, that reusing a Digester instance is not recommended. See the
wiki FAQ:
http://wiki.apache.org/commons/Digester/FAQ
I'll add some info about that to the Digester class javadocs.
> Memory leak in Digester class by inputSources collection
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIGESTER-125
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIGESTER-125
> Project: Commons Digester
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Andrey Polyakov
> Fix For: 1.8.1
>
>
> There is no clean method for inputSources list from Digeste class,
> in frequent usage of parse() method inputSources collection will collect
> references to sources objects. In this situation the number of object
> references represented by sources from inputSources,
> will be increased and consume a lot of memory. For intensive parsing smth
> around 200 mb for 8 hours was consumed.
> Solution is simple method cleanup() should contain line inputSources.clear();
> at the end of the method.
