Memory leak while creating a large table with more than 5000 rows and and 3 columns. Each cell of the table will have a nested table of 2 rows and 5 columns each. Could anyone help me with this. This is the piece of code that does the creation of table: import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import com.lowagie.text.Document; import com.lowagie.text.DocumentException; import com.lowagie.text.PageSize; import com.lowagie.text.Phrase; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfPTable; import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter; public class PdfHeapTest { public static void main(String[] args) { try { Document document = new Document(); document.setPageSize(PageSize.A4); PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("c:\\h1.pdf")); document.open(); int rows = 5701/1; int columns = 3; int innerTableRows = 2; int innerTableColumns = 5; PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(columns+1); for(int j=0;j<rows;j++){ table.addCell(new Phrase("Row"+j)); for(int i=0;i<columns;i++){ PdfPTable inner = new PdfPTable(innerTableColumns); for(int k=0;k<innerTableRows;k++){ inner.addCell(new Phrase("A"+j)); inner.addCell(new Phrase("B"+j)); inner.addCell(new Phrase("C"+j)); inner.addCell(new Phrase("D"+j)); inner.addCell(new Phrase("E"+j)); } table.addCell(inner); System.out.println("Row "+ j +" Successfully added"); } } document.add(table); document.close(); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (DocumentException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } Thanks in advance, Regards, Prakash ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
