Re: Problems with ImageIO

2011-09-29 Thread Nubile

I saw this problem while loading a TGA reader. I was able to first resolve
the problem by disabling JreMemoryLeakPreventionListener, but a better
solution seems to be to put a static initializer in my webapp code that
forces the container to re-scan for reader implementations once the webapp
classloader is up. For example:

static {
ImageIO.scanForPlugins();
}


, and was able to resolve it by calling

Correct.  The JRE keeps a global imageio registry with a reference to a 
webapp-specific class, resulting in a slow PermGen memory leak.

Also correct, since the classes will now be loaded by a global classloader, 
rather than a webapp-specific one.

Which includes being easier for anyone installing your webapp.  Unfortunately, 
you have to pick one poison or the other, since Sun mostly ignored their 
servlet-spec-required isolation of webapps when designing the numerous global 
registries.

I suppose you might try a ServletContextListener that deregisters the JAI 
classes when your webapp is being shut down.

Re: Problems with ImageIO

2010-04-07 Thread Thad Humphries
Chuck,

Setting the JreMemoryLeakPreventionListener attribute
appContextProtection="false" also fixes the problem.

My read of documentation makes me think

(1) This leak situation may arise when I use "stop" or "reload" on my
webapp.
(2) It can also be prevented by placing my JAI and JAI-IMAGE I/O jars in
CATALINA_HOME/lib or JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext vs my WEB-INF/lib.

Is this read correct? Regarding #2, javax.imageio.ImageIO is part of the
JDK, but the readers for TIFF are loaded from jai_imageio.jar
I prefer to keep the jars in my WEB-INF/lib as it's less intrusive to the
server manager.

There are several attributes that can be toggled on and off in the listener; 
you could try those one by one, rather than disabling everything.  I suspect 
it's this one: appContextProtection.

Ah! Gotcha.

Thanks, Chuck, Mark.  That fixed it.

(Sorry for being so dense.  Since Tomcat moved from v3.2 to v4, it's been
about the most trouble-free app I use.  I haven't fussed with configuration
in YEARS.)

I believe Mark was suggesting that you try disabling the 
JreMemoryLeakPreventionListener in conf/server.xml, just in case it was 
interfering with the JAI registration.

I had a similar problem (though it's maybe not even related) setting up a new 
Tomcat server on a fresh Ubuntu Linux install. We also use tif images and I had 
to install a couple extra ImageMagick packages, as well as something in JAI to 
get it to recognize .tif as a format. Until I did that, I could not process 
tiff images.

If you mean the "Find leaks" button in the Manager webpage (

Problems with ImageIO

2010-04-07 Thread Thad Humphries
I believe I'm seeing the same problem that Simone (msg #210515) is having
(this after running Tomcat for YEARS without a hitch).

I use JAI and JAI-IMAGE I/O in various servlets.  I'm running Java 1.5.17
without the JAI or JAI-IMAGE I/O installed.  I've put jai_codec.jar,
jai_core.jar, and jai_imageio.jar in my application's WEB-INF/lib directory.

My application runs without a hitch on Tomcat 6.0.14 on a Linux server (and
has run fine for over a year).  I have also run it on a Macintosh with
Tomcat 6.0.20.

Today I installed Tomcat 6.0.26 on Linux and tried running my webapp.  Under
this version of Tomcat, Iterator returned by
ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("tiff") returns false for hasNext().
What gives?

Are you seeing this, Simone?

The webapp I am talking about is a GeoSpatial server called GeoServer.
At startup my own SPI implementations are not registered anymore in
the IIORegistry.

Libs are inside WEB-INF/lib of GeoServer WAR.

That makes sense but doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know.

Still no info on when you see this issue. All the time? Just on reload?
Randomly?

Still no info on where these JARs are located. In a WAR, in
CATALINA_HOME/lib, somewhere else?

Ciao Mark,
thanks for your answer.
The short explanation is the one I gave "It looks like that ImageIO
additional service providers are not loaded
 anymore at runtime via the standard jar META-INF/services mechanism."

Longer explanation is as follows. ImageIO allows to define additional
readers/writers by means of the javax ServiceRegistry/IIORegistry
mechanism: this mechanism basically requires that we put complete
classnames for the service strategies we have defined for a certain
interface inside a text file whose name is the complete classname of
the interface, e.g. javax.imageio.spi.ImageInputStreamSpi. Does this
make sense?

Ciao,
long story short, in an OS geospatial project that we maintain we are
experiencing problems when deploying on Tomcat >= 6.0.24 due to the
latest permgen fixes ( I guess).
It looks like that ImageIO additional service providers are not loaded
anymore at runtime via the standard jar META-INF/services mechanism.
Any hints for putting together a workaround?
