LO43941: GDI OBJECT LEAK WITH ERROR ICON ANOTATION IN LS EDITOR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Update 2/24/2009 Ketan Patel:  The leak is coming for the
  vertical ruler
  showing the error annotation (on the left of text area).  There
  are three
  options with error annotation (see File->Preferences;
  General->Editors->Text
  Editors->Annotations preference page) and the vertical ruler is
  the only one
  increasing GDI objects.
  The problem is really bad because script with 5-10 error showing
  and scrolling
  the editor leaks lots of GDI objects.  I was able to cause "No
  more handles"
  exception within one-two minutes of scrolling editor showing
  errors.
  
  
  When running the LS Editor tests, on some systems, with low
  resources, the
  designer starts to throw SWT exception saying no more handles.
  I have done a
  quick test and noticed that every time an ls editor has an error
  and the error
  icon is shown, the GDI object count goes up by two.
  
  When the SWT runs out of handles, designer and the desktop goes
  white...nothing
  can be rendered when designer is active.  You have to kill
  and/or restart
  system.
  
  To Reproduce:  (This is very basic test)
  Start designer
  Start process explorer to track handle count and GDI objects
  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx
  .
  Open View -> Select column... menu in process explorer
  Under Process Memory tab, make sure you have GDI objects
  checked
  Click ok to close dialog.  Now you should see gdi object column
  on the righ
  hand side view in process explorer
  In designer, open or create new LS library
  In process explorer, make note of the handle count and GDI
  objects.
  Type some error like "adllfalsd" and wait for the error icon to
  show up.
  Verify that GDI object count increased by two.
  Remove the error text and repeat step 8
  With some error showing, switch for full-script mode to section
  with error.
  This removes and shows error and the GDI count will increase by
  two on each
  switch section.
