Per the API contract, the
StandardJavaFileManager
isCloseable
and must be closed or file handle leaks will occur.On a very large multi-module Maven project this was causing tens of thousands of open file handles and a sawtooth-shaped time series graph over open files as the GC finalizer just happened to come around and finalize the dereferenced
JarFileSystem
objects, causing them to close on their own as a stop-gap. On some machines, a "Too many open files" error was experienced, failing the build.With this change in place, the number of open files fluctuates gently as each compilation opens the files it needs and closes them as soon as it has completed. That is the expected behavior.
