destroy()/stop() in applets
Hello,
I am having very serius problems with a web application. The problem is, the applet does not close properly upon any of the following operations: reload, back/forward page and in some cases even when I close the entire broswer. After pressing reload so many times; there is a heap overflow that is created because the applet has loaded so many instances of itself. I have overidden both the stop() and destroy() methods and they join() all open threads, problem is; it looks like these methods are never actually called. I can't find any reports of any problem like this; so I was wondering if anyone could give me a more detailed explanation of how to "properly" make a applet stop/destroy its resources. Oh; one last side note; this has been tested on many computer with the same result.
Thanks a lot,
Bobby
