Description Chiana 2012-10-12 06:29:46 UTC
Build: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201210110002)
VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, 23.3-b01, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment, 1.7.0_07-b11
OS: Windows 7

User Comments:
Chiana: This is the result of trying a new package for the first time, one thing I did notice is that none of the errors occuring actually exist. My guess is that this is caused by the debugger. It had similar behaviour as a previous error I reported where the debugger gradually went into some uncertain state when trying to expand a few tables, that is the system went into really high gear requiring it to actually use it's cooling fan, also noted it was using exessive amount of ram (approx 4 Gig).
Will now reboot and then try this again

Comment 2 Chiana 2012-10-12 06:47:57 UTC
So, I did find the cause of this. It was actually an assignment to a null pointer. Examin the following

private ThreadData[] pool=new ThreadData[INITIAL_POOL_SIZE];

and then in the constructor

for (int i=0;i<INITIAL_POOL_SIZE;i++) {
  pool[i].thread=new WorkerThread(i);
  pool[i].thread.start();
}
As you can see I did forgot to create the "pool[i]", this is an error, but then again, it should not cause 5-6 "just not related" exceptions from the debugger.

Could you please post the generated heap dump? Thanks.
Comment 4 Chiana 2012-10-12 07:32:22 UTC
I tried to reproduce this with the following class that is similar in structure but somewhat smaller (B-) to the one that fails.
public static class Debug {
    static Debug d=new Debug();
    public static void test() {
      
    }
    private class LInt {
      Thread a;
    }
    private LInt[] I=new LInt[10];
    
    Debug(){
      for (int i=0;i<10;i++) {
        I[i].a=new Thread(new Runnable() {

          @Override
          public void run() {
          }
        });
        I[i].a.start();
      }
    }
  }
 
and the calling Debug.test() to start it, but it works as it should.
The heapdumps are on it's way, currently beeing compressed as it is a big chunk of data.

Heapdump delayed. Will post link as soon as available.

Unfortunately, it seems that your upload was not successful :-(

Is it possible to upload it to some alternative location? Thanks and sorry for an inconvenience.

I think it succeeded this time, build #79 in hudson.

There are 8 instances of  SymTab.
Instance #1, #2, #3, #4, #6, #7 are referenced from org.netbeans.modules.debugger.jpda.projects.EditorContextImpl. See attached path to GC root. Re-assiging to debugger.

Comment 13 Martin Entlicher 2012-11-12 16:57:11 UTC
There are three staled entries in the WeakHashMap. The length of the associated ReferenceQueue is 3. We need to expunge the staled entries somehow, since WeakHashMap does not do it automatically :-(

Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201211150001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress)

User: mentlicher@netbeans.org
Log: #219962: An active implementation of weak hash map is used to hold the source handles. The entries are removed automatically as soon as they are freed by GC.
