Hi,

I've written a plugin, which open a swing-frame as preview (no swt
possible) and it doesn`t free the memory, when the frame is disposed
manually. When I disposed the view right after the showing the memory
was released, but not when closing it with a windowevent. This way after
some time it will kill the memory of the system.

greetings
Joachim

It's hard to tell. Swing, up to now for JFrames, have been notorious for
not being garbage collected. Something within swing seems to hold onto
them. Can you reuse the JFrame instead? That way you won't be
accumulating them.

Just to be sure: You use JFrame#dispose() method and
have set
JFrame#setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DISPOSE_ON_C LOSE), right ?
