[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Reopened: (HHH-4317) Memory leak in EnumType class.

Memory leak in EnumType class. ------------------------------ Key: HHH-4317 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4317 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: annotations Reporter: Paweł Kępka Assignee: Strong Liu Priority: Critical Fix For: 3.5.0-CR-1 Attachments: EnumType.java, EnumType.java.patch, enumtypeleak.war Holding enum values in static enumValues map in EnumType class causes memory leaks on application server where hibernate is loaded by application server's common classloader (like for default configuration of JBoss4). SoftReference or SessionFactory based caching should be used instead.
