Re: [eclipselink-users] The ScrollableCursor's issues

Hi, James Sutherland
Thank you again!

I implemented the finalize method for the class whose instances are
retrieved by the cursor and I can see the result of the finalizing in the
system log so I am sure that instances are collected.

@Override
protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
	// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	super.finalize();
	System.out.println("OebsView.finalize()");
	System.out.println("id=" + this.getId());	
}

And I use this code to tell the JVM to collect the garbage:

Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
rt.gc();

But I have the java.lang.OutOfMemoryError in the end.



Regards,
Dmitry
