Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but I'm looking for good way to prevent the JFrame/JDialog memory leaks caused by https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029147
The best solution I've found so far is to use reflection to dig in and null out the 'target' fields on the LWComponentPeer and CPlatformWindow after disposing. This at least allows the JDialog/JFrame instance to be GC'd (along with any heavier objects they may reference), but isn't optimal since ultimately the LWComponentPeer and CPlatformWindow instances still end up leaking. Another problem with this approach is that we have hundreds of uses of JFrames/JDialogs across our codebase and this workaround would require each one of them to be modified to add this special cleanup logic; I'd like to avoid that if at all possible~ Any suggestions? ~Andy Lee
