Does cocoon-2.1 ever call org.apache.fop.image.FopImageFactory.resetCache() to stop the fop image cache from consuming all memory?
Maybe it should be called after rendering every page to avoid having to use the "dummy parameter" mentioned below. Is it safe to call this method while images are being rendered (for other requests)? At the bottom of http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html it says: <quote> Image caching FOP caches images between runs. The URL is used as a key to identify images which means that when a particular URL appears again, the image is taken from the cache. If you have a servlet that generates a different image each time it is called with the same URL you need to use a constantly changing dummy parameter on the URL to avoid caching. Currently, the images are not automatically released when an OutOfMemoryError is imminent. The image cache can grow to a considerable size over time when a lot of different URLs are in use. Starting with version 0.20.5 you can call org.apache.fop.image.FopImageFactory.resetCache() to manually empty the cache. Image caching will be improved as part of our redesign effort. </quote> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
