Object lifetimes should be well managed such that you can't use an object after it has been "destroyed". Methods like `release()` effectively nuke the internals of the object but the object is still available to be (mis)used. Before this fix `release` left a dangling `_obj` pointer, but that wouldn't be an issue if the handle itself could not be used after being released. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/15920#issuecomment-1740244084
