Hi Jan, Disposables are only called when the Plexus container is itself disposed or when someone explicitly calls the container to release the component (or the map/list containing the component). If it is not getting called then that suggests no-one is disposing of the container. (Sisu-)Plexus will only act on container.dispose() - it doesn't install any shutdown hooks itself or use any form of GC/finalization to track when a component is no longer alive. -- Cheers, Stuart > Any hints what I could be doing wrong? > > Regards, > Jan > > [1] http://git.eclipse.org/c/tycho/org.eclipse.tycho.git/tree/sisu-equinox/sisu-equinox-embedder/src/main/java/org/eclipse/sisu/equinox/embedder/internal/DefaultEquinoxEmbedder.java > _______________________________________________ > sisu-dev mailing list > sisu-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/sisu-dev
