MEMORY LEAK WITH DS DRIVER WHEN PROCESSING DB2DSDRIVER.CFG KEYWORDS IN .NET | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
When using the DB2 Data Server Driver Package, there might be a small memory leak (anywhere from 1-30 bytes) for every connection request made with the DB2 .NET data provider. The problem would only occur if the DS Driver was processing keywords from the db2dsdriver.cfg file for the connection. For example keywords like Authentication and ClientApplicationName. This specific problem would not happen if using ODBC/CLI or OLE DB, as the process where a leak was detected is only triggered by the DB2 .NET data provider. | |
Problem Summary: | |

Local Fix: | |
Removing the keywords from the db2dsdriver.cfg file may reduce or eliminate the leak. Using an instance based client like the Data Server Client would also help eliminate the leak. | |
