Memory Leak in ODF Simple API
-----------------------------
Key: ODFTOOLKIT-300
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODFTOOLKIT-300
Project: ODF Toolkit
Issue Type: Bug
Components: simple api
Affects Versions: 0.8.7
Environment: odfdom-java-0.8.7.jar; simple-odf-0.6.6.jar
Reporter: Mathias Silbermann
Assignee: Devin Han
There is a memory leak in the ODF Simple API. I tried both, versions 0.6.6 and
0.6.5. It appears when running code like the examples on cookbook page
http://incubator.apache.org/odftoolkit/simple/document/cookbook/Manipulate%20TextSearch.html
In short, the call TextNavigation.nextSelection() leads to the leak. When you
look down the method's call stack, you will find that items are added to the
static variable "repository" of the static inner class
"Selection.SelectionManager". The added items are never removed from the
repository. One indication is that the method
Selection.SelectionManager.unregisterItem() is never called.
The code works fine if text navigation is done with few documents. But when its
run on a server thousands of times, it will fill the JVMs memory.
