Re: [Wrapper-user] Windows page file increasing

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Todd,
    Does your application make use of any of the WrapperManager API 
calls?  Or are
you simply using Method #1 or #2 to wrap your application?

    I ask because a memory leak in the WrapperManager.listServices() 
method was
recently reported.  It has been fixed for the upcoming 3.2.4 release.  
That leak was in
the native library and showed up as a leak in the java process but I had 
not verified that
there was not also a leak in the OS.

    I have not noticed any such leak in the past, but that doesn't mean 
it is not there.
How significant is the leak you are seeing?   How is its growth releated 
to the Wrapper's
lifecycle?  Basically you have told me there is a leak in the Wrapper, I 
am looking for
how I can reproduce your tests and see this myself.

Cheers,
Leif
