Possible Memory Leak
--------------------

                 Key: TRANSACTION-33
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRANSACTION-33
             Project: Commons Transaction
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0
         Environment: ubuntu hardy heron, tomcat, java 1.6
            Reporter: shishir sharma
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 2.0


I have been using 2.0 version of library available mainly for hierarchical 
locking issues. Apart from few other minor issues, it has been working pretty 
fine. I recently observed heap size issues with my environments and while 
investigating that I found that my piece of code using 
DefaultHierarchicalManager.java is among the top three heap consumers at that 
time.

Upon analysing the heap a bit more (and going through the code of transaction 
2.0), I found that we are not emptying a hashmap in RWLockManager.java. As a 
result, it holds onto references and corresponding objects are never garbage 
collected. Please review the following patch and let me know if it is ok or not.

Thanks,
Shishir
