Problem IC72649
|
Status: Geschlossen |
MEMORY LEAK WHEN RUNNING CLI/ODBC APPLICATION THAT ALLOCATES AND FREES AN ENVIRONMENT HANDLE FOR EVERY ITERATION IN THE PROCESS. |
| Produkt: |
DB2 CONNECT / DB2CONNCT / 970 - DB2 |
| Problembeschreibung: |
A CLI / ODBC application can have a memory leak if the
application makes the following series of calls in a loop:
SQLAllocHandle (SQL_HANDLE_ENV)
SQLAllocHandle (SQL_HANDLE_DBC)
SQLConnect()
SQLDisconnect()
SQLFreeHandle (SQL_HANDLE_DBC)
SQLFreeHandle (SQL_HANDLE_ENV)
This can also occur if the application process spawns threads
that perform those sequence of calls and multiple threads are
invoked.
This memory leak will only occur when the db2app.dll library is
being unloaded and reloaded. When using the DB2 CLI/ODBC driver
with Microsoft's ODBC driver manager, the memory leak will occur
since the ODBC driver unloads db2app.dll when SQLFreeHandle
(SQL_HANDLE_ENV) is called. |

| Local-Fix: |
Instead of allocating a new environment handle for each
iteration, just use one environment handle. Then allocate a new
connection handle for each iteration from that environment
handle. If using threads, allocate the environment handle in
the main thread, and allocate the connection handles in the
child thread. |

| Workaround |
Instead of allocating a new environment handle for each
iteration, just use one environment handle. Then allocate a
new connection handle for each iteration from that environment
handle. If using threads, allocate the environment handle in
the main thread, and allocate the connection handles in the
child thread. |
