WebServiceContext injection into WS Provider leads to memory leaks ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBWS-2662 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2662 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: jbossws-native Affects Versions: jbossws-native-3.0.5 Environment: Debian Linux 2.6.18-4-686, Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 14.0-b13, mixed mode), JBoss AS 5.0.1.GA Reporter: Sergey Graschenko Fix For: jbossws-native-3.2.0 JBoss AS going out of memory after a few hrs of mild load (~100 request/minute) having the following code @WebServiceProvider(serviceName = "SampleService", portName = "SamplePort", wsdlLocation = "WEB-INF/wsdl/sample.wsdl") @BindingType(value = HTTPBinding.HTTP_BINDING) @ServiceMode(value = Service.Mode.PAYLOAD) public class SampleProvider extends AbstractServiceProvider implements Provider<Source> { @Resource(type = Object.class) protected WebServiceContext wsContext; public Source invoke(Source req) { MessageContext mc = wsContext.getMessageContext(); String path = ((String) mc.get(MessageContext.PATH_INFO)).substring(1); JAXBSource result; // // whatever // return result; } } As I mentioned in referenced forum thread, if I set wsContext to null after use, memory leak goes away.
