Cache Input Stream can leak resources

[kkieffer]

When running offline, panning and zooming causes tiles to try and load however connection.getInputStream() throws an UnknownHostException. If the user keeps trying to load new tiles eventually it throws a SocketException - too many open files (even if the network later comes back online, tiles no longer load and throw this exception, see below). I suspect url.openConnection() needs to be closed (closing the input stream does this automatically).

Some info from the web suggests casting the URLConnection to HttpURLConnection, and checking that a call to its getResponseCode() method == HTTP_OK. Also in any case a finally clause to its disconnect() method.

As it turns out, this is not a bug per se, but occurs because the java.net.Socket is opening a native resource (socket handle) and apparently it does not release the native resource until it is garbage collected. In my case I guess the GC was not running often enough to avoid the issue.

My solution is to keep track of a count of tiles that fail to load. When it reaches some threshold I call System.gc(). I know its not advisable to be calling this but it does solve the problem.
