ASF GitHub Bot logged work on BEAM-6460: ---------------------------------------- Author: ASF GitHub Bot Created on: 18/Jan/19 23:16 Start Date: 18/Jan/19 23:16 Worklog Time Spent: 10m Work Description: mxm commented on issue #7552: [BEAM-6460] Remove cached class references upon start/shutdown URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/7552#issuecomment-455718167 I have yet to verify this with @djhworld, but from my analysis the reported problem comes either from an incorrect packaging of the jar or from the use of Flink's `parent-first` classloader. Both lead to using Flink's internal version of Jackson, instead of the user-provided one. This can let the classloader leak. That said, the fix in this PR has been verified to fix the @djhworld's problem, so I'm leaning towards merging it. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

When the > pipeline is restarted due to a failure, a new classloader is created which > can result in too many classes being loaded. > Reported on the user mailing list: > https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/e201891684ef3dcffce48d20d1f9be0e19fc2294334362cc7092c0ff@%3Cuser.beam.apache.org%3E -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
