Description Petr Nejedly 2001-08-31 13:16:58 UTC 
There are *BeanInfo classes which uses static images and even static
initializers holding the BIs data. This is considered a memory leak
in this context.

For loading images, use org.openide.util.Utilities.loadImage directly
in getImage without any caching (Utilities will do SoftCaching for you).

Create BeanDeascriptor and PropertyDescriptors just on demand without
any caching, Introspector will cache it itself.

You can look at beaninfos in org.netbeans.beaninfo for an example.

Please fix it also in debuggerjpda and debuggertools.

Comment 2 Petr Nejedly 2001-09-18 16:22:44 UTC 
Debugger modules are the last standard modules that didn't change
their BeanInfos, see #14943 ... :-)
Comment 3 Daniel Prusa 2001-10-17 12:21:08 UTC 
Fixed in main trunk.

Comment 5 Daniel Prusa 2001-10-17 15:03:56 UTC 
Should be OK now.
Comment 6 Petr Nejedly 2001-10-17 15:28:38 UTC 
Now I agree ;-)
Comment 7 Quality Engineering 2003-06-30 17:27:51 UTC 
Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
