2014.2 Crash by scrubbing - serious memory leak? (screenshot attached)

Hello. I've bought one year premiere pro cc plan. After upgrate from 2014.1 to 2014.2 I suffer with many crashes a day. I can't roll back, because I am in the middle of the feature film edit and new files are not opened by 2014.1
The most anoying crash is about memory use growth.
First - my system and sequence specs:
I have 48gb ram, intel i73930k processor, 4TB main drive and 3x250SSD drives for scratch disks. My Gpu is 2 x nvidia gtx 780 (3gb ram each). I work in 4k workspace and with uhd timeline 2.35 : 1 ratio. (3840x1628)
Second - how to crash.
I open the pproj file (about 8mbytes in size). It is a full feature film, i edit it in 3 parts for better performance. My main codec is cineform, both for HD previews and final 4K encoding.
Then I move playhead over any clip  already rendered with preview (HD - mpeg or cineform).
Then I hold left mouse button and I start to scrub playhead left/right randomly along timeline, the problem unfolds: ram usage starts to go up, after some time of scrubbing it hits the ceiling and premiere crashes (along with eventual other apps opened as firefox).
It seems like premiere is registering every displayed frame in memory, even if it is already rendered as preview. And there is no limit set for doing this, so it overflows and crash.
As you see on the picture, in preferences there is 8GB reserved for other apps, and optimization for memory set.
Scrubbing over non-rendered clips makes ram eating even worse, crash occurs earlier.
I wonder - do you people have this similar problem? Could someone reproduce this inside any larger project (30 minutes of standard movie edit).
I would like to find solution, because I cant allow for so many crashes during serious production workflow.

I'm having the same problem too.
I've been posting my issues on another post entitled, "Just spent $7000. on new custom computer and PremiereProcc2014 crashing". (see my NEW profile computer specs as of two weeks ago)
I've been experiencing about 25 crashes in an 8 hour period. Some after 1/2 hour and others back to back crashes.
I didn't even think of why it was crashing until I called support, whereas they took over my computer and showed me that even when timeline is PAUSED, YES EVEN JUST PAUSED, we watched the RAM clime and clime to the ceiling until Premiere crashed.
It's so frigg'in frustrating that people here are complaining and there seem to be absolutely no talk about this issue. It's probably the cause of many Premiere issues, in my humble opinion.
Strangely enough, the tech fixed the problem (but this has been happening to me often and even with my older computer). Anyway he stopped several Adobe related running programs in the background, and took my timeline to a new project.
Basically, I'm not sure exactly what he did to solve the problem, and sadly I suspect it will return as it always has done so.
One strange note is that he reset all my preferences back to the defaults. I'm talking about maybe 15 presets that I have including a handful of changed key-strokes (to my liking), and simple things like "double-click opens in same folder" and "don't replay timeline after rendering" and "don't go to beginning of project after end of play-line" and changed around my user interphase to my liking.
These type of customization shouldn't cause Memory Leaks? I just don't get it.

  • My iMac keeps crashing due to a memory leak....  Any thoughts on what this means?

    I'll be using my iMac (27" late 2009) and it will suddenly cut to black.  Then after a second or two, a grey screen will appear and tell me an issue occured and to push any key to restart.  Once the computer restarts, the issue report pops up and it says I have a memory leak.  I don't know what that means, or how to fix it.  Any thoughts on the cause of why it's doing this, or the impending doom it may be heralding?  I've posted the issue report below incase anyone can glean anything from it.  Thanks for your help.

  • Firefox 4 still suffering from a serious memory leak, ends up using 2GB of RAM on 5 tabs and a few plugins?!!

    Why does even Firefox 4, which was supposed to have this issue fixed by now, still suffer from memory leaks?
    I opened up 4-5 tabs, enabled Firebug to tweak a few pages, and an hour later Firefox usage is up to 2GB of RAM?
    What a...?!
    Now, seriously, if you run to suggest that it is most likely due to add-ons and that I should disable them all and start Firefox in safe mode, let me just cut you off right there and ask you this - out of millions of people who downloaded this browser, who the hell uses it without any plugins and/or in safe mode?
    If you're gonna make a browser, make it so that it's lean and free of these issues to begin with, out of the box AND in case an addon or something else is added to it - can't they protect the core files and libraries from being victims to this, in case the addons are to blame?
    And in case it's a Firefox issue to start off with, seriously, can you get a dedicated developer to look into this alone and get it fixed, once and for all?

    I have six tabs open and generally have 3-5. It's been sitting here since last night. I'm using 296Mb ram which is high for me on Windows. My wife and son both use FF4 also and, having just checked, are between 210 and 268Mb respectively.
    No one I know ever complains about high memory usage in FF4 and neither have I experienced it since FF2.5 when memory leaks any user would notice were all fixed.
    So my advice is the same. If your add-ons aren't causing you problems, fix your system.

  • Serious memory leak in Safari 5.1.2 for Lion

    Safari keeps on using memory and frees up almost nothing even after I close the web page.

    You didn't REALLY believe they FINALLY fixed the leak, did you?
    Safari's been leaking for years, no reason to believe they'd fix it now, regardless of what the release notes say.
    You're unlikely to see any difference in memory usage by closing one or two pages.

  • Serious Memory Leak Problem. Needs to be resolved ASAP

    Ok, I have been researching this problem All Night and I cannot figure it out!
    I am Running Final Cut Studio 2 Final Cut Pro 6. I Edited a piece Today and I have been trying to REnder it for 3 hours. I have cleared out the preferences. I have gone through all of the picture files, and I have deleted the Render Files and started over, No matter what, I watch in the activity monitor as it bleeds the memory and stops withj an out of memory error message. I would really appreciate if anyone has another solution i could try

    I don't think the extensions are the problem. As David said If any of those images were saved in a color mode other than RGB, you'll have trouble. This usually only occurs when you put the shots in the timeline but you'll want to get rid of them from the browser as well just to be sure.
    i basically imported a disc of random pics at the beginning of the project
    I assume that you copied the contents of the disk to your hard drive first otherwise FCP will be forever reading those files from the CD.

  • There seems to be serious flash memory leak in ie7

    internet explorer 7.0.5730.13 (everything works with firefox). It can be
    seen clearly browsing open flash charts site. Here are steps to
    reproduce:
    1) go to
    http://www.websector.de/blog/2007/10/01 ... wsmonitor/
    2) click start on WSMonitor
    3) File->New Window paste following address in address bar and click
    enter: http://teethgrinder.co.uk/open-flash-ch ... hollow.php
    4) click from chart to chart and see each time how memory increases...
    This does not happen with firefox.
    Independently to trouble shoot it wasn't any code I confirmed by making an swf file with actionscript with simply following:
    package  {
    import flash.display.Sprite;
         public class main extends Sprite {
              public function main() {
                   trace("starting3");

    hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

  • Memory leak in Digital Waveform

    I have a program with a pretty serious memory leak that uses up all my system RAM and crashes my computer within a few hours of running the program.
    The program takes an array of U16s where each bit represents a digital signal. The VI converts each U16 to a digital array and groups the resulting 16 digital signals into different busses for display on a Digital Waveform Graph. The profiler doesn't show any excessive memory usage in the VI. I put the whole VI into a Diagram Disable structure and moved a few pieces out at a time, and eventually the only thing inside the disable structure was the Digital Waveform Graph indicator. When this indicator is enabled, the memory usage of my system rises slowly and steadily until it uses all available RAM and crashes the system.
    If I replace the Digital Waveform Graph indicator with a cluster, the memory leak still occurs (but much more slowly). I thought using the cluster fixed the leak until I reran the VI overnight while using the cluster instead of the Graph.
    If I stop the VI before all the RAM is used, the RAM will not release until I close LabVIEW entirely. Once LabVIEW closes, the memory is released slowly and exponentially unless I use the "End Process" option in Task Manager.
    This is a continuation of a previous post I made where I thought the memory leak was due to problems transferring data from an FPGA for display.
    I ran the MemLeak vi (attached) on two separate systems, both running LV 2013 SP1, and got the same results. The memory leak is noticeably fast when using the enable structure connected to the Digital Waveform Graph but still present when using the cluster of Digital Waveforms.

    Thanks for the replies.
    In response to John's points:
    1. The attached VI is a simplification of an FPGA VI that read a fixed number of samples from a DMA FIFO using an FPGA Interface Invoke Method approach. I'm using a card (PXI-7842R) that doesn't allow use of the Acquire Read Region method. In order to allow people without an FPGA card to hopefully see the issue, I replaced it with the for loop. Assuming that this for loop does leak (which I don't believe it does; as altenbach said, it's a fixed size allocation that LV should be able to reuse), why would I see a difference in the leak magnitude depending on which indicator I connect to the array?
    2. I've previously reviewed the document you referenced, and I don't see any errors from it present in my code; do you? I have no global/local variables, strings/arrays displayed on front panel, property nodes, coercion dots, altered memory sizes, resizing/reallocations, etc. I don't see any weird buffer allocations. I used to have the conversion from U16 array to digital waveforms in a subVI but placed it on the same diagram to allow incremental use of the Diagram Disable structure.
    3. The forum post you referenced had many of the items discussed above, plus it was solved using an RT FIFO. I'm not passing data from a producer to a consumer; I'm just displaying acquisition results. I guess you could say I'm processing the data, but I'm really only converting it to a format that the indicator will take; I'm not operating on the data.
    It's good that the leak doesn't show up in 2014, but my SSP runs out in a couple of days; I never got an upgrade to 2014. This is the last item remaining on the development path, and we've already spent ~$4k to upgrade the controllers enough to display the acquisition without dragging down the CPU. I will be in hot water if I spent all that money and then end up having to scrap the display...

  • Memory Leak in Adobe Premiere CC on Windows

    I installed Premiere CC on Windows 7 ( Intel Core i7-3770K [email protected] GHz, 16GB RAM). Software has a serious memory leak. After less than hour working on a very simple project (no rendering, no effects) memory usage  reached 15 GB, at which point Premiere stopped responding. After closing and reopening software memory usage again started to increase. I was testing it by just scrubbing over timeline, no editing, memory usage still slowly crept-up. I called Adobe technical support, they tried to tell me, that this is normal. Right! It is normal to be forced to close and reopen application every hour? I do not think so. I have Premiere CC also installed on my MAC Book Pro, checked memory usage on much bigger project, it was steady, not creeping up, using beween 1 and 2 GB.  I checked forums for this problem, there are several posts, but have not found any response from Adobe regarding this.
    Update:
    Tonight I continued working on same small project, within 2 hours I had to shut down Premiere 3 times. I also limited in setting memory Premier can use, that did not make any difference, usage by Premiere went to maximum - total 16 GB with about 2 GB taken by system and other stuff running. I am monitoring memory usage on resource monitor. Used Physical memory went 100 %, Commit Charge about 60%. This so far happened three times  in a row.
    Adobe, can you hear me?

    Having said that, this is not a problem I see on any of the four Windows machines I work on.  And it's not a problem commonly reported here.  So my inclination is to suggest that something may be funky with your install.

  • Apparent "Memory Leak"

    I can't keep Skype loaded without crashing Windows because all memory gets used.
    Memory usage starts at about 2.6 GB RAM when I load Skype.
    Then climbs to consume all memory (4 GB ) within 60-90 minutes - even when not on a call.  Issue stops when I exit Skype.
    This started when I switched to new microphone (Condenser mic via external DAC - Tascam US-800 using ASIO drivers)  Works fantastic (sounds much better than old, cheap mic) until memory is used up and Windows crashes.
    No problem seen when using mic with Digital Audio Workstation software packages (Reaper, FL-Studio, etc)
    Any ideas/suggestions I can try so I can make this great setup useable with Skype for more than just a brief period?
    Thank you!
    Skype version 5.5.0.124
    Windows 7 (64-bit)
    4 GB RAM
    USB interface to Tascam US-800 (supporting XLR input for condenser microphone)
    Tascam Driver ver 1.0.16.0

    Actually, the problem isn't Skype; it's the TASCAM drivers.
    I also own the US-800 and there is a serious memory leak whenever it's in use.  I have the same problem on multiple computers with various audio software.

  • Yosemite - Mail.app memory leak

    I'm seeing a recurring issue with Mail.app taking up huge amounts of RAM memory.  There's evidently a serious memory leak in Yosemite Mail.  On three occasions today, I noticed my free memory below 20 MB (I have 16GB).  Activity Monitor shows the culprit to be Mail.app taking any where from 20-65GB of memory!  I've had to quit Mail and restart it, only to have the same issue surface later.  Does anyone have a way to mitigate/resolve this issue?

    I apologize this is not the Discussion that has all the solutions. It's this one:
    Yosemite OS 10.10 Mail Memory Leak
    There are 19 pages so far, I'll see if I can find my post with the suggestions. Found it, it was on page 7. Here ya go. Hope it works!

    Thanks mlwebber & etresoft. I think we were able to narrow down the 4 most effective methods of temporarily resolving this issue it seems. I only had to disable the drafts to get back to normal, but others are reporting that using that in conjunction with a combination of 3 of the other methods from mlwebber are resolving their issues. Albeit this is only a temp fix until Apple updates their software & truly fixes this bug/issue, but, at least, I hope, we all can get back to business as normal for the time being.
    Doren (from etresoft’s observations):
    - Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors: UNCHECK “Store draft messages on the server”
    mlwebber:
    - Preferences/Accounts/Advanced: UNCHECK “Use IDLE command if the server supports it”
    - Preferences/General/Check for new messages: “Every 5 minutes”
    - Preferences/Junk Mail: UNCHECK “Enable junk mail filtering”
    Please post in this discussion if none of these methods help you and we'll see what we can do. We'd also love to know if these methods also resolve your issue. Thank you.

  • Crystal report XI makeas memory leaking

    Hi all:
    My application use vs2003/COM+ with independ crystal report XI and it has a serious memory leaking issue. After I generated the report, the memory grew twice and then soon the application is crashed after it is up to the maximum memory.Microsoft helped me to look at the dump user file and their concusion is that the Crystal report was build with Debug mode and not release mode. I never heard it before since I only add module to my deployment project and never know it has debug and release module version. So Can I please get help and how can I get the release crystal report module?
    copid from the Microsft reply email:
    Hello Helena,
    Your custom modules are built in Release mode as per the configuration settings in Visual Studio, however, all the dlls that are built in Debug mode are listed below:-

    You can not. The memory will never go down to zero - at least not as long as the app is running. There is a number of files, assemblies, etc. held in memory by the framework until the app is shut down. This behaviour is by design, and is actually quite important. First with an application more then one report can be loaded at one time, so the underlying dlls couldn't be unloaded until all reports for that application were closed. If we behaved this way, everytime a new report was opened we would need to load all our core dlls, search for optional dlls and read all the registry keys over again. This would be a performance hit in the speed of the report being viewed and on the entire system. By leaving our core engine open after the report is closed there is no longer this bottle neck, and really if we changed this we would get lots of complaints.
    Now in general this is not that big of an issue for Windows applications as it is usually one user on a system at a time and 40 MB for a user is not much. For web applications I can see this as a potential issue, however if you are having 100 users at a single time running reports from your web application I might suggest that Crystal Reports may not be the best solution for you. I suggest you look at Business Objects Enterprise where you can offload the report generation from your Web App server to the Enterprise server to see if this would benefit you.
    A memory leak would be if you see this number increasing for ever - unitl you run out of memory and the mchine become unresponsive.

  • Memory leak in OCI while using AQ

    There seems to be a serious memory leak in the OCI driver (9.2.0.1) when using a JAVA client to dequeue a database queue (Advanced Queuing).
    Continuous dequeuing causes the heap memory to increase, and this memory never gets freed which leads me to suspect a memory leak in the OCI components (as the memory allocated for the JVM is constant). The heap memory increases by 3-4 MB after a dequeue of 1000 RAW messages,
    Has anyone come across this problem before and if so are there any solutions? Changing to a thin driver is not a solution for me due to other requirements.
    I'm using using Oracle client v9.2.0.1 libraries running on Solaris 8.
    The source code for my JAVA test client is as below:
    /* JAVA dequeue */
    package com.ubsw.risk.pce.eventqueues.test;
    import oracle.AQ.*;
    import java.sql.*;
    import oracle.jdbc.*;
    public class testRawDequeue {
    public testRawDequeue() {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    Connection conn = null;
    AQSession aq_sess = null;
    try {
    Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
    //Use OCI connection
    conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:oci:@DB_NAME.world","user","password");
    conn.setAutoCommit(false);
    Class.forName("oracle.AQ.AQOracleDriver");
    while(true) {
    aq_sess = AQDriverManager.createAQSession(conn);
    runTest(aq_sess);
    aq_sess.close();
    aq_sess = null;
    System.gc();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    System.out.println(e.toString());
    try {
    if (aq_sess != null) {
    aq_sess.close();
    if (conn != null) {
    conn.close();
    } catch (SQLException sqle) {
    public static void runTest(AQSession aq_sess) throws AQException, SQLException
    AQQueueTable q_table;
    AQQueue queue;
    AQMessage message;
    AQRawPayload raw_payload;
    AQEnqueueOption enq_option;
    String test_data = "new message";
    AQDequeueOption deq_option;
    byte[] b_array;
    /* Get a handle to a queue - in aquser schema: */
    queue = aq_sess.getQueue ("user", "raw_msg_queue");
    System.out.println("Successful getQueue");
    /* Creating a AQDequeueOption object with default options: */
    deq_option = new AQDequeueOption();
    /* Dequeue a message: */
    message = queue.dequeue(deq_option);
    System.out.println("Successful dequeue");
    /* Retrieve raw data from the message: */
    raw_payload = message.getRawPayload();
    b_array = raw_payload.getBytes();
    System.out.println("bytes:" + b_array.toString());
    queue.close();
    ((AQOracleSession)aq_sess).getDBConnection().commit();

    This sounds very similar to the memory leak I have in Oracle 9i using Pro*C++. Everytime a connect is made memory appears to leak and it only happens in multithreaded mode not default mode. There is a thread about this under the Oracle C++ call interface. Under 9i it appears to leak about 60K per connect rather than 60 bytes.

  • BUG:  Apex4/Anychart5 - memory leak?

    We are running into a pretty serious problem with resources. It seems that there is some kind of interaction between Apex and Anychart5 that is causing a pretty serious memory leak. For example, in one dashboard I am building, I have 9 charts on a page. When I click through a chart to a second page, I have three charts and an Interactive report.
    None of the sql is really all that complex. But I will include one of the queries singled out by one of our DBAs as being involved in consuming over 20 GB of data (values slightly modified for security). The query:
    SELECT CASE
    WHEN quarter = 'Q1'
    THEN
    '/pls/apex/f?p=108:3:1111111111111111::::P3_YEAR1,P3_YEAR2,P3_CLICK_VAL,P3_QUARTER:2009,2008,2009,1:'
    WHEN quarter = 'Q2'
    THEN
    '/pls/apex/f?p=108:3:1111111111111111::::P3_YEAR1,P3_YEAR2,P3_CLICK_VAL,P3_QUARTER:2009,2008,2009,2:'
    WHEN quarter = 'Q3'
    THEN
    '/pls/apex/f?p=108:3:1111111111111111::::P3_YEAR1,P3_YEAR2,P3_CLICK_VAL,P3_QUARTER:2009,2008,2009,3:'
    WHEN quarter = 'Q4'
    THEN
    '/pls/apex/f?p=108:3:1111111111111111::::P3_YEAR1,P3_YEAR2,P3_CLICK_VAL,P3_QUARTER:2009,2008,2009,4:'
    END
    link,
    quarter label,
    so_ext_price Sales_2009
    FROM ( SELECT SUM (v.so_ext_price) so_ext_price,
    ('Q' || TO_CHAR (v.cal_qtr_num)) quarter
    FROM owner.materialized_view_mv@db_link_name v
    WHERE v.cal_year = TO_CHAR (2009)
    AND v.account_number IN
    (SELECT *
    FROM TABLE(user_pkg.get_customer_numbers (
    'APP_USER',
    'USER_PROPERTY',
    'CUSTOMER_NAME'
    -- THE ABOVE SUBQUERY SELECTS FROM A PIPELINE FUNCTION TO RETURN A LIST OF STRINGS
    GROUP BY v.cal_qtr_num
    ORDER BY v.cal_qtr_num)
    As you would expect, this query returns 4 records reflecting sales by quarter. The query takes about four seconds to run. Explain plan cost is just under 14K. The pipeline function literally returns a single column of about six values using a simple select distinct where the parameters passed are filters in the where clause. The pipeline function returns in approximately 1 second. The largest result set it ever returns is six rows. The pipeline function is innocuous on its own but I am suspicious that it may be where we're running into issues. We weren't seeing these problems (or at least they weren't as noticeable) until we needed to use pipline functions. 'Don't use pipeline functions' is not an acceptable work around in our case. While I can figure out a way around it in the charts by returning SQL from a function, I cannot do so in the interactive reports.
    What our DBAs found is that the code pasted below is what was sucking down 22 GB of ram, then after clicking through to the second page the same code (for a different chart query) was consuming 17 GB of ram almost depleting our 48 GB of ram on our server in less than ten minutes. I disabled the chart running each 'offending' query and we had the same results with a different chart but the same underlying code below.
    I don't know where in Apex this lives but it's the killer. Can I get some feedback? Anyone else having similar issues?

    rc__ number;
    simple_list__ owa_util.vc_arr;

    If we are barking up the wrong tree, I'd be VERY happy. I'd rather it was something I could fix.
    Edited by: WannaRock on Aug 24, 2010 9:53 AM

    Thanks for looking at this post. We have resolved the issue for ourselves by working with our DBAs to narrow down where the problem actually started. We found that the particular SQL we were looking at was not the issue. In a chart on a subsequent page (via a click through), we were actually running into where apex was starting to consuming memory but we were catching it later.
    What we found was that when we had a chart query that was SQL containing a pipeline function, the memory usage went up. And within 10 minutes, the server would crawl to a halt. To release the memory, the DBAs would have to bounce the Apex instance. When I changed the query to be a function returning SQL, the problem stopped. I don't know what the correlation was between SQL and moving to a PL/SQL function returning SQL.
    I am not even 100% positive of the pipeline function being the cause. I only know that this started happening about the same time as when I implemented the pipeline function. I understand you are leery of a one-second function/query running up that kind of utilization. No one here believed me either (including me really). We figured it HAD to be a coincidence. But once I changed the query from SQL to a function returning PL/SQL, our problem went away.
    Thanks to all who looked at and thought about this.

  • PrinterJob and Memory Leak

    I have encounter a serious memory leak when printing in Java. When the following code is compiled into a 'jar' (1.4.x and 1.5.x) and run, the Print process consumes roughly 4 Mb and never gives it back. Does anybody have a solution for recovering the lost memory?
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.print.*;
    public class BasicPrint extends JComponent implements Printable {
    public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pageIndex) {
    if (pageIndex > 0) {
    return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;
    Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;
    g2d.translate(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY());
    g2d.draw3DRect(20,50,100,50,true)
    return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    PrinterJob pjob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    PageFormat pf = pjob.defaultPage();

  • Can ANYONE spot the memory leak??

    Hi, I have some code here, and there is a SERIOUS memory leak. Basically, I realized the leak was there when a report tried to execute this 100,000+ times and it bogged the system down to a crawl. Can anyone spot the leak? I will explain the variables below the code:
    char* getDescription(char* chFlag, char* chDEID, char* chKey, int keysize)
    //first, we need to allocate new Byte arrays....
    jbyteArray JchFlag = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,1);
    jbyteArray JchDEID = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,2);
    jbyteArray JchKey = (*env1)->NewByteArray(env1,40);
    //next, we need to put the correct info in those byte arrays....
    (*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchFlag,0,1,(jbyte*)chFlag); (*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchDEID,0,2,(jbyte*)chDEID); (*env1)->SetByteArrayRegion(env1,JchKey,0,40,(jbyte*)chKey);
    getDescriptionID =(*env1)->GetMethodID(env1,myjclass,"getDescription","([B[B[BI)Ljava/lang/String;");
    result              =(jstring)((*env1)->CallObjectMethod(env1,myjobject,getDescriptionID,JchFlag,JchDEID,JchKey,keysize))  ;   
        returnvalue = NULL;
        if(result == NULL)
           strcpy(holder1, "**********Error Finding Description**********");

    (*env1)->DeleteLocalRef(env1,result);
    return holder1;
    //return description;
    }//end getDescription function
    -myjclass is global, it gets its value in the initialization.
    -any variables that are not declared in this function are, of course, globally defined.

    Hello Friends,
    I had also tried to use the ReleaseStringUTFChars after making the check of whether it does a copy or not.
    For me in Windows, it works fine most of the time. But when I go on increasing the no. of strings in a Vector of objects to more than 500 or something , then it occasionally fails.
    Just before ReleaseStringUTF, I do have the copied string in char* .
    Soon after Releasing, I do get a junk in the character array.
    I dont know why it happens like this.
    Please advice.
    Everyone suggest ReleaseStringUTF.
    But why it fails in Windows.
    And any one know about how it will behave in Alpha.
    It totally fails in Alpha.
    I could not get the string at all.
    Please help
