>          Key: AXIS-2232
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2232
>      Project: Apache Axis
>         Type: Improvement
>   Components: Deployment / Registries
>     Versions: current (nightly)
>     Reporter: David Blevins
>  Attachments: TypeDesc.java.patch
>
> The TypeDesc class holds a static Hashtable of class -> TypeDesc mappings.  
> This is fine if Axis is loaded into the only the same classloader as the app 
> itself (like when it's embedded in a webapp), but if axis is loaded into the 
> parent classloader of all webapps, the hashtable will prevent those children 
> classloaders from being garbage collected as it holds references to classes 
> in those children classloaders.
> This patch 1) creates a Hashtable of class->TypeDesc for *each classloader* 
> and 2) stores those hashtables in a WeakHashMap so they can be garbage 
> collected when the child classloaders are garbage collected.
