Ciaran Jessup commented on ODE-574:
-----------------------------------
If you don't clear the cache after the compile, you end up with two instances
of the oProcess graph in memory each time which uses an un-necessary amount of
memory ? By clearing the cache at that point, the extra oProcess will get
garbage collected and the XSLT cache just gets re-populated when the
re-hydration phase kicks in so you still get the cached resources at runtime
(this I checked ;) ) ... am I missing something ?
> Memory leak when Un-deploying processes that contain XSL stylesheets

> Project: ODE

> Components: BPEL Compilation/Parsing, BPEL Runtime
> Environment: N/A

> Currently if the BPEL process contains any XSL stylesheets it will not free
> up *all* the memory that was allocated during the compilation/dehydration of
> the process. This seems to be because there is a cache of XSLTemplates
> stored in the XSLTransformHandler, and these XSLTemplates can sometimes
> contain (transitive) references back to the OProcess object instances (via
> for example the URIResolvers/XPAth Expressions). Unfortunately this cache
> lives forever (crucially even after the process has been un-deployed)
> because of this the object graph hanging from the OProcess object instance is
> never available for the GC to pick-off.
> There is also another reference issue in the ErrorListener that is associated
> with the XSLTransformHandler instance, but I don't really understand that bit
> of code just as yet, a patch for the former issue follows, I'm reviewing the
> ErrorListener issue currently.
