We have an application (web applications and web services -> commons-dbcp -> dbs) which eats Oracle db sessions. Our system engineers cries like Gluttony Gluttony, stop their sentences with a "UNCLOSED CURSORS !!!" and blames the application behind which is mainly written with Java. We software developers desperately try to find unclosed statements, result sets, connections. So far we use

• findbugs
• codepro analytix.

As far as I know they use static code analysis and we can not find major leaks.

My first question is there any other tool that can trace the unclosed cursors?

My second question is there a monitoring tool which can analyze a running JVM and find unclosed cursors in a running JVM?

I know similar questions have been asked on SO. I am desperate enough for losing some SO points.

Querying v$open_cursor migh be helpful. See this thread: http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:685336504294
