Marshaller holds reference after marshalling for the writer that was used to marshal into · Issue #843 · javaee/jaxb-v2 (original) (raw)

Description

This is coming with the bundled jaxb of jdk1.6.0_21.

For this reason storing references to marshallers is not a good idea if you last time marshalled some huge files.

The class is for testing purposes in the attachment. The first argument is package name the second is a unicode xml file. If it is not unicode change the encoding in inputstreamreader. Use big file about 100 MB to see the problem nice way. I attached a screenshot about the heapdump (stopped by debugger) after the line "Trying to release writer locally - nothing happened. Small change is there because string is collected".

I would recommend to do some similar test for unmarshaller and a bytearrayinputstream for example. Is it holding the reference or not?

Example test output:
