Mark Struberg closed MCOMPILER-133.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Facing OutOfMemory as IsolatedClassloader (plexus-compiler jar) is not closed
> after JavacCompiler is done with compilation.
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MCOMPILER-133
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-133
> Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Windows 2003 Server
> Reporter: kaniska
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: IsolatedClassLoader_Issue.docx
>
>
> In Eclipse environment for a maven-based project, Auto-build fires
> Maven-build which in turn executes CompilerMojo, finally creating an
> IsolatedClassloader for each compile call !
> IsolatedClassLoader.addURL(URL) line: 42...
> JavacCompiler.compile(CompilerConfiguration) line: 141
> CompilerMojo(AbstractCompilerMojo).execute() line: 493...
> DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo(MavenSession, MojoExecution) line:
> 105...
> MavenImpl.execute(MavenExecutionRequest, IProgressMonitor) ...
> MavenBuilder.build(int, Map, IProgressMonitor) line: 153 ....
> AutoBuildJob.run(IProgressMonitor) line: 238
> So every single change in maven-v4 project creates a new IsolatedClassloader
> which is fine.
> But the problem is JavacCompiler is not closing the loader which holds huge
> number of jars (url points to maven-repo) in its url classpath.
> It should use ClassLoaderutil.releaseLoader(..) to unload the jars.
> GC does not reclaim the isolatedclassloader instances (not sure why).
> As a result, IsolatedClassloader instances consume retains the heap.
> Eventually maven-application goes OutOfMemory !
> Attached is the heapdump analysis of isolatedclassloader that holds the
> memory.
> This is kind of blocking us from building largescale maven app which requires
> good number of jars in development time for compiling the app source at
> development time.
> Please note that we face this issue at development time whenever developer
> making changes in source code as explained in the code-flow above.
> Please let us know if more information is required.
