Description Steve Powell

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: expected:<false> but was:<true>
	at org.eclipse.virgo.medic.dump.impl.HeapDumpContributorTests.dumpHeap(HeapDumpContributorTests.java:64)

This line expects there NOT to be a dump file (heap.out), but 
org.eclipse.virgo.medic.dump.impl.heap.HeapDumpContributor 
in project org.eclipse.virgo.medic.core
writes heap.out even if a heap dump is NOT generated.

Comment 1 Steve Powell

Solution is to modify HeapDumpContributor to NOT generate a file called "heap.out" when it hasn't generated a heap file.

Comment 2 Steve Powell

Solution (comment 1) implemented.  Heap dump not reliably taken.  Long term solution requires better heap dump implementation in multiple JVMs.

[Bug: 311858] was raised when this fix caused other tests to fail.

That issue is now settled. This one can be closed.
