> keep the reference to the char sequence "forever" Note that this only happens if the `Reader` instance is kept forever; but a `Reader` is supposed to be used and closed and discarded instead of being held indefinitely after closing. If users are bad enough, they can never call `close` and the non-final `cs` is still leaked. The right way of GC freeing is to let the GC free the reader and the char sequence together, instead of allowing to free when a client keeps this reader instance erroneously after closing. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21371#discussion_r1790505636
