Build Identifier: 20100218-1602

CalendarCombo instances appear to never be GC'd. Looks like there is a listener somewhere that never gets removed?

this$0 of org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.calendarcombo.CalendarCombo$15 (0x5556b612)
  eventListener of org.eclipse.swt.widgets.TypedListener (0x5556b55c)
    element of org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Listener[ ] (0x5556b550)
      listeners of org.eclipse.swt.widgets.EventTable (0x5556b54f)
        eventTable of org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell (declared by org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Widget) (0x5555ef51)
          shell of org.eclipse.ui.internal.WorkbenchWindow (declared by org.eclipse.jface.window.Window) (0x5555ee17)
            activatedWindow of org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench (0x555555af)
              static workbench of class org.eclipse.ui.internal.StartupThreading (0xfffff06a)

Reproducible: Always

We had the same listener and GC problem with eclipse 4.1 and a CSSSWTEngineImpl related memory leak (see: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=318944). both where fixed with the attached and changed CalendarCombo. feel free to use the changes.

I found the same thing.  Any listener you add needs to be removed.  My workaround was to add a dispose listener and when I receive that I remove any listeners I added.  This seems to allow it to be garbage collected.

CalendarCombo will be archived june 30 2013.
Please update your software to use Nebula CDateTime or SWT DateTime.
Closing as WONTFIX.
