Review Request for 8163261: regression on Linux: java/awt/LightweightDispatcher/LWDispatcherMemoryLeakTest.java

[Ambarish Rapte]

Hi,

                Please review fix for JDK9,

                Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8163261

                Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~arapte/8163261/webrev.00/

 

Issue:

                Reference to JButton was not getting collected by GC.

 

Cause:

                A strong reference to objects was held by 
PainterMultiResolutionCachedImage.

                And the image reference was held by HashMap.

 

Fix:

                Changing the HashMap to WeakHashMap. Entry to WeakHashMap gets 
removed after the object has no other strong reference.

 

 

 

Regards,

Ambarish
