Hi Paul,
It helps to free up memory sooner than waiting for GC.
I used it in the RR loop or when you have a big number to objects to manipulate
(export job or whatever) if you can’t do raw sql. Rather than having a single
ec, you can can dispose and create a new one every batch of x EOS.
I used this piece of code all the time:
EOEditingContext ec = newEditingContext();
ec.lock();
try {
...
} catch (Exception e) {
log.error("method: blabla ", e);
} finally {
ec.unlock();
ec.dispose();
}
Best,
Philippe
