Description

When a Cache instance which is overflow-to-disk is disposed off through Cache.dispose() the DiskStore.dispose() is called which cleans up the disk store. Unlike the MemoryStore.dispose() method the DiskStore.dispose() method does not set the Cache instance to null.

It would probably be better to drop the respective reference. Interestingly the DiskStore instances turn into GC Root objects of type “local stack” (please forgive my ignorance, I am not very sure what this actually means, but it seems that for this reason the DiskStore and Cache objects cannot be collected).

Attached is a simple patch, which sets the cache field to null when the DiskStore is diposed. Sourceforge Ticket ID: 1474363 - Opened By: fmeschbe - 21 Apr 2006 19:15 UTC
