Hi,
 
Further to my previous post regarding JTA transactions and upon my concern at finding an unclosed InitialContext I did a search through the jBPM source code and to my amazement I found that this is in fact commonplace. And this same issue can be found throughout the entire code base !!!!!!! Am I really looking at the right code here ?????. Its the 4.3 source code !.
 
The following classes have this issue:-
 
org.jboss.bpm.console.server.util.InvocationProxy
org.jbpm.jpdl.internal.activity.JavaActivity
org.jbpm.jpdl.internal.activity.JmsActivity
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.cfg.ConfigurationImpl
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.processengine.ProcessEngineImpl
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.tx.JtaTransaction
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.wire.descriptor.JbossIdmIdentitySessionFactoryDescriptor
org.jbpm.pvm.internal.wire.descriptor.JndiDescriptor
 
This means that the current distribution of 4.3 could simply not be used in a real production scenario due to memory leaks. I have will raise a JIRA for this issue !
 
If someone gives me access to the source code I can make the appropriate changes but I am very concerned at this. I have not worked with JBoss but as far as I know it wont close connections for you !!.
 
Regards
Martin
