FileCleaner thread never ends and cause memory leak in AS ---------------------------------------------------------
Key: IO-99 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-99 Project: Commons IO Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.2 Environment: JBOssPortal with commons.fileupload Reporter: Vera Mickaƫl Priority: Critical FileCleaner opens a thread and no solution is given to the user to end it. So when an application is undeployed in an Application Server, a thread is still alive. The WebApp can't be undeployed and this results in a classloader leak that will cause an OutOfMemoryError. I think the API should be extended so that a user can end the thread. A better way would be to provide a class that cleans everything for commons IO. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
