Ok it might be my fault (and probably is). Do you see any strange in
this:
Background:
- I have extended Maveric Dispatcher so that it loads Hibernate Session
Factory from JNDI and places it in servlet context. Is that proper thing
to do?
- I have abstract controller that every of my maverick commands extends.
- Abstract controller has 2 methods. getSession() that loads Session
factory from Servlet context and then opens a new session (if user has
already called this.getSession, then it returns previously opened
session) and places it in class level variable and then returns it to
user.
- User then uses session.
- User does not close session.
- Session is closed in Abstract controller's discard() method that
maverick calls automatically after it has served the client (e.g. gui is
generated).
The proces goes like this:
1. User makes request eg. grid.m that is a maveric command.
2. Maverick initializes NEW controller (the controller extends abstract
controller) 3. Then maverick calls execute method. 4. execute method
calls this.getSession.find("whatever") <- lazy collection 5. execute
method returns a string (that is the view to be rended) 6. Maverick
generates a view (view uses lazy collection) 7. Maverick calls discard
(that closes a session)
The generated HTML (in this case) contains many img tags like this
<img src="image.m?id=number" />
So every needed image gets loaded throught Maverick from database.
image.m command opens session as above and after sending raw data with
proper content-type session get's closed in execute method (Maveric
calls discard, but it doesn't do anything cause session is already
closed by execute command).
The problem is that I have no idea why Hibernate's SessionImpl finalize
method tries to close connections that I have already closed (I can
output proper log messages when discard is called). What I have found is
that if I don't close connections in execute method (prior view), then I
sometimes leaves connections open. At least on load testing. If I don't
use lazy collections I do not have this problem.

It's quite long time when I read that, and I could have read it wrong (I
checked IBM docs and they all used finally)... and if I think about it,
I agree with you. The errors I get about unclosed connections, I get
them from SessionImpl finalize(). But problem is not there I think.
Is it proper to place SessionFactory in servlet context, or should I
always retrieve it from JNDI? I think that JNDI lookup causes some
overhead, so I have put the Session factory in servlet context.
When I should use Session.disconnect / reconnect instead open and close?
Should I set session to null and should I also check if session.close
returns an open connection? Do I need to close the connection then
manually? Do i need to set connection = null?
