How to release svnkit resources after log

Question

• I use svnkit in java application to get svn revisions log, but after finish the process on the visualVm some svnkit resource and thread still exist and live .

• ex. org.tmatesoft.svn.core.internal.util.SVNHashMap$KeyIterator, org.tmatesoft.svn.core.wc.DefaultSVNRepositoryPool$TimeoutTask

• And when i try to log more than once it effect the application performance.

• how can i release svnkit resources?

• Code sample:

  public static SVNLogEntryHandler doLogFully(String[] paths, long startRevision, long endRevision, SVNRepository repository) throws SVNException {
  SVNLogEntryHandler logEntryHandler = new SVNLogEntryHandler();
  
  repository.log(paths, startRevision, endRevision, true, true, 0, false, null, logEntryHandler);
  
  return logEntryHandler;
  }
  

• story log entry.

    for (SVNLogEntry logEntry : doLogFully(..,..,..,..,..).getLogEntries()) {
       // store log entry 
     }
  

• Update

  • i create SVNRepository using SVNRepositoryFactory.

    SVNRepository repository = SVNRepositoryFactory.create(SVNURL.parseURIEncoded(repositoryUrl));
        repository.setAuthenticationManager(SVNWCUtil.createDefaultAuthenticationManager(repositoryUserName, repositoryPassword));

Run ISVNRepositoryPool#dispose on the connection pool from which you create SVNRepository instance. It will stop the timer.
