My application with several JFrame-windows eats resources
I've been working on an application that uses several windows. Now I found
out that the garbage collector is unable to destroy attributes belonging
to a window when it is closed. In fact, it feels like the same window would
be opened again when I'm trying to open a new instance of the same window...
I've been using dispose() to close them. Anyone have any ideas of what to
do??
Thanx in advance!

After calling dispose() call your Frame's finalize() method. You could then
call System.gc() for explicit garbage collection. I think this is right.
It seemed to work for me.
