PREVENTION OF CLASSLOADER MEMORY LEAKS IN MULTITIER ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

摘要

A classloader cache class definition is obtained by a processor. The classloader cache class definition includes code that creates a classloader object cache that is referenced by a strong internal reference by a classloader object in response to instantiation of the classloader cache class definition. A classloader object cache is instantiated using the obtained classloader cache class definition. The strong internal reference is created at instantiation of the classloader object cache. A public interface to the classloader object cache is provided. The public interface to the classloader object cache operates as a weak reference to the classloader object cache and provides external access to the classloader object cache.
