http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39090 Summary: Memory Leak: Tomcat files keep references to classes loaded by WebappClassLoader Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.9 Platform: All OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am running Tomcat 5.5.15 on the latest J2SE 1.6 Mustang build 74. org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester maintains references to commons-logging log that gets loaded by WebappClassloader. See attached. Thus, applications that put commons-logging.jar and log4.jar in their WEB-INF/lib will not be GC'ed on reloads, undeploys, and stops. This is a severe memory leak for developer's using Tomcat for development. Please see the attachment from the YourKit Profiler that confirms this finding. Note: it appears the last place in Tomcat's source code where this error occurs. Once this is fixed, Tomcat will be fully "developer-friendly". :-) -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
