Description Quy Nguyen 2008-01-11 02:07:58 UTC

Component-related instances in the com.sun.webui.jsf.* packages accumulate in the FactoryFinder.applicationMaps table. 
Some other objects from jsfsupport (RaveServletContext, RaveRenderKit, DesigntimeViewHandler, etc.) leak as well.

To reproduce:
* Close the navigator and ensure that the Outline does not appear

1) Create a vw project
2) Drop a component onto the page
3) Clean-build
4) Close the project
5) Repeat steps 1-5 as needed
6) Open/close the properties window (avoid a separate memory leak)

Every time steps 1-4 are executed, the number of objects in the static FactoryFinder map increases.  The objects appear
to never get removed from the map.

The FactoryFinder is part of JSF RI Implementations.
I noticed the method FactoryFinder.releaseFactories().
Probably we should try that at FacesContainer.destroy()
method and see if the applicationMaps are released.

Quy,
  This issue seems to be a duplicate of 125081. If you agree, can you close this please ?
thanks

Comment 3 Quy Nguyen 2008-01-19 00:57:00 UTC

The memory leak here may cause a leak of classloader objects (from Issue 125081) but it is a separate issue.

Comment 4 Winston Prakash 2008-02-04 15:21:27 UTC

Now calling FactoryFinder.releaseFactories() to release the factories 
at FacesContainer.destroy()
