Hi Steve, yes, I agree. I've also tried a test code and found no reason for the message from Eclipse. It just complains about all closable instances which are not explicitely closed. I think most of them can be ignored. It's just that I wonder why mkgmap requires more and more memory the longer that it runs, so I started to check all these messages about resource leaks. The longer it runs, the longer it takes to do a Full GC. Found nothing important so far. Gerd Steve Ratcliffe wrote
Hi
Eclipse complains about a lot places in the source code., e.g. "Resource leak: 'fmt' is never closed SyntaxException.java /mkgmap/src/uk/me/parabola/mkgmap/scan line 45 Java Problem"
The code looks like this:
public String getMessage() { Formatter fmt = new Formatter();
In this case it writes to a StringBuilder. This is not even a Closable, so the close() method of Formatter does nothing in this case.
So nothing is being leaked.
