Strange Out of Memory exception in C# with List or Strings or ado.net? - string

Question

I have a big doubt. The problem is Out of Memory Exception in my class. But it seems something strange here. I have class in a dll.
public class MyClass : IDisposible
{
List<ClassA> a_classLists = new .....// new instance.
List<ClassB> b_classLists = new .....// new instance.
public string Method1(int IDValue)
{
// do here some web service call and get some XML data from it.
// parse the xml.
// Iterate through a for loop and add each node value to a_classLists
// Usually contains 10 or 15 items
Method2(); // from here calling another method
FinalSaveToDB(); // finally save the data to DB
return "";
}
private void Method2()
{
// do here some web service call and get some XML data from it.
// Iterate through a forloop.
// parse the xml. [large xml data. ie, image in binary format]
// For each loop add image binary data and other xml to b_classLists
// Usually it contains 50 or 60 such large lists.
}
private void FinalSaveToDB()
{
// using sqlbulkcopy, i am saving the data in the 2 lists to 2 different
// tables in the DB.
// Tab lock is mentioned in sqlbulk class.
// Actually 2 sqlbulkcopy class for 2 lists.
// Only 1 sql connection opens, then do the sqlbulkcopy. [there is no dataset or datareader]
// sqlconnection closes. I am using "using" clause for sqlconnection, bulkcopy etc
// these all are working fine.
}
private void Dispose()
{
// here nulling everything
// proxy null
// all the lists null....
}
}
This is the class I am instantiating 1000 times using reactive framework's Observable.Start
method as shown below...
private IObservable<string> SendEmpDetails(Employee emp)
{
using (MyClass p = new MyClass())
{
return Observable.Start(() => p.Method1(emp.ID), Scheduler.ThreadPool);
}
// here I hope it will call the Dispose and release all objects in the class.
}
// This EmployeeLists contains 1000 employee objects
EmployeeLists.ToObservable().Select(x => SendEmpDetails(x).Select(y => new { emp = x, retval = y }))
.Merge(10)
.ObserveOn(Scheduler.CurrentThread)
.Subscribe(x =>
{
SendStatus(x.retval.Item1, x.retval);
});
Even though, why i am getting out of memory exception ??? After starting the app, when it
process the 200th (or above) MyClass object, it throws error.
I forgot to mention 1 more thing, I am using VS 2010 and C# 4.0 (win7, 64 bit OS).
I need to log each activity. [ie, i need to understand the each and every process the app has gone through]. SO i declared a class [MyClass] level private string variable and assign each process details like "called this method", "got 5 records from this web service" etc.
logdata = Environment.Newline() + "This method has completed";
So the error is thrown here saying out of memory with some evalution failed.
So I turned off the string evaluation check box from Options in VS.
Again, there is no use.
So I changed the string to StringBuilder and tried to append the activity string each time.
Still no use. I dont understand what is the problem in it.
Is this because all the threads are working parallel, do they exchange the MyClass resources ??? Why the objects are not released ???
Please help me in this matter.
