Hi,
to answer my own question: The meta-model is re-created whenever
EntityManagerFactoryImpl is instantiated. Hence old meta-model
elements will be GC'ed and with them the SessionFactoryImpl etc. (if
it was closed).
In my case now there was a static reference from application code to
one element
Hi,
while analyzing a memory leak I noticed that instances of the static
JPA 2 meta model seem to hold references to Hibernate's session
factory. In my case the path to the factory is the following:
SingularAttributeImpl#attributeType ->
EmbeddableTypeImpl#hibernateType -> ComponentType#typeScope
