mapscript crashes on getFeature

[Benedikt Rothe]

Hallo Donovan

Some month ago I made a posting about  Mapserver/Java-crashes
in Java-Finalizers, which tries to explain a problem on
memory-managment in Mapserver/Javascript  ("Java VM Crashes using the 
Mapscript API"):

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.mapserver.user/11536
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.mapserver.user/11678

Additional hint: I found bugs of this kind by changing all existing 
Java-Mascript-finalizers which call "delete()" to:

  protected void finalize() {
    if(swigCPtr != 0 && swigCMemOwn) {
      System.out.println(this.getClass().getName() + "-finalize 
deallokiert");
    }
    delete();
  }

The stdout will have messages for all classes which are freed in a 
dangerous way.
As long as this kind of messages one should look for missing delete's.

I hope this helps

PS: By following this rules the Java-App became much more stable.
But I still face problems of this kind one some machines.
