Hello, I have an application deployed to a Tomcat 8.0.5 which uses the ServletContextListener to do something when Tomcat stops. This task takes about 45 seconds. This wasn't a problem until I learned that I could speed up the Tomcat 8 startup time by parallel instantiation of my webapps by adding the startStopThreads attribute to the Host tag in the server.xml.
Now, when Tomcat stops, it seems to interrupt or stop my Thread, because it doesn't print out anything anymore (even a System.out.println isn't shown in the log so I don't think it is because just log4j is stopped). Why does Tomcat wait nicely with startStopThreads removed, and why can't he wait when I use startStopThreads? The behavior of killing webapps the hard way when using startStopThreads isn't documented also.
