Description Chris Webster 2004-10-08 18:58:47 UTC 
I noticed that TemplateChooserPanelGUI uses the
Utilities.attachInitJob, which adds a strongly
reference listener to the AWTEventListener. The
listener is causing a leak each time this is
invoked from the new menu on a project. 

Seems like either the detach can somehow be
invoked when the job is complete or a
WeakReference could be used.
Comment 1 Chris Webster 2004-10-08 19:55:11 UTC 
After looking at this a bit more I noticed that the job is never
started, so the easiest solution may be to remove this invocation.
Although, I am not sure about the consequences of this.
