I need to schedule periodic platform restart in report generating tool, because of memory leaks in BIRT engine (bug 302242). Is there some simple way of getting number of currently running tasks to not interrupt them?

I do not think the engine keeps a record. The viewer implements this by
storing an id (task.getID()) for each task started by the engine. You
can use the task.getStatus() to determine when its finished.

Form the IEngineTask

static final int STATUS_NOT_STARTED = 0;
/**
* the task is running
*/
static final int STATUS_RUNNING = 1;
/**
* the task is finished with sucessful
*/
static final int STATUS_SUCCEEDED = 2;
/**
* the task is finished with errors
*/
static final int STATUS_FAILED = 3;
/**
* the task is finished by cancled
*/
static final int STATUS_CANCELLED = 4;

I've tried another approach:

I've put RunTask and RenderTask code into try{} finally{}
try{
BirtEngine.incrementRunningTasks();

// RunTask and RenderTask code

int runningTasks = BirtEngine.getRunningTasks()
if (runningTasks == 1){
    BirtEngine.destroyBirtEngine();
}

}finally{
    BirtEngine.decrementRunningTasks();
}

but it ended up with outOfMemoryException() after couple of reports and platform restarts. After some investigation I've found that it's because org.mozilla.javascript refuses to be garbage collected. Then I've added
org.mozilla.javascript.Context.exit();
after BirtEngine.destroyBirtEngine();
This time after couple more runs it was OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space. Then I've run into this bug 261845.
So my question is: does anyone have patched js.jar from 1.7R2 release? I'm trying to do this by myself but so far without success.

Lukasz,

Does the report you are running call any external Java classes?

Jason,

No I have report with just one scripted data source. Nothing fancy, just displaying numbers. And actually I've patched rhino 1.7R2 with https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494665 but problem with org.mozilla.javascript not being garbage collected persists.

Can you add your comments to the bug? Any chance you can test this
without the scripted data source?

Yes, I'll comment this bug. Testing without scripted data source isn't a problem, but still I'll have to use some javascript in report to trigger loading org.mozilla.javascript class. Can you suggest something?

Can you write the scripted datasource using a Java event handler instead
of javascript?
