Re: [JAVA3D] Memory leak: A simple idea

Hi Jean,

From your test I can say it is not memory leak at all. It is Java gc working. Otherwise you won't get memory back even you sleep all day.:)

Subject: Re: [JAVA3D] Memory leak: A simple idea

Noticing the same problems with memory leaks, here is what I do each time I remove/add new graphics to display to force freeing memory:

                mainWindow.setState(Frame.ICONIFIED);
        try{ Thread.sleep( 20); }
        catch( InterruptedException ie) {}
        mainWindow.setState(Frame.NORMAL);

I know it is not nice, but works very well since it may free up to 50MB!!
Unfortunately, I don't know if it is possible to do that with an applet....

Thank you all for your concern,
   But if any one have found this problem before and
solved it please give me a hint since i thing that
this problem is not a minor one since implementing
java3D over swing components is not a strange thing to
do,I hope to find a solution soon since this is
critical for the application i make

Have you run your app under a tool like Borland
OptimizeIt, which can show you all live objects on
the heap, their reference chains, and their
allocation points?  If not, I suggest that should be
in your near-term plans.

We have had many memory leaks with our app that we
would *not* have been able to solve without the help
of a memory tracing tool like this.  Much more
information is provided in a much more
understandable format than what one can get the JVM
to emit to the console.

Good luck,
Marty

Hi,

 I just did a test case like you describe: a

simple

GUI application with a button to open JDialog

with a

running Canvas3D inside.
  I have the same behavior: after JDialog opened
free
memory decreases, and after closing the JDialog
there
is a few MBytes released, but far from that

initial

value.

 I suspected there are some Java3D threads still
running, but with my JDeveloper trace tool, I

could

not note evidence of this. The Java3D threads

just

stop running as it should be.

 Next try. I run my application with a
-verbose:class
option:
java -verbose:class myApp

 Ok. A big list of loaded classes fill up my

console

screen. Yeah, Java3D loads a lot of classes,

around

300, and they are kept in memory for future use.
This classes are not reloaded when I open the
JDialog
a second time.And opens very fast.
 As gc just take instances, and not the class
definition, that space taken by classes are not

full

released.
 Seens right to me. Just take a lot of memory.

 It is all a got.If someone knows how relase

more

memory after releasing  Java3D instances, please
share
it with us.
 Ok, have more memory is always a good option ;)

Java 3D objects implemented on a JDialog are

used

cleanUp() method of SimpleUniverse , How can i

solve

this problem
               Thank you all
