Gruust commented on BATIK-939: ------------------------------ h1. shutdown() function for CleanerThread #27 Opened pull request at https://github.com/apache/xmlgraphics-batik/pull/27 Instead of using or suppressing interrupts, a simple CountDownLatch is used to check whether the thread should shut down or not. Would be nice if I could at least run Batik in my maven build process without spawning external Java processes (maven complains about the Daemon thread not shutting down). > [PATCH] CleanerThread never terminates, causes leaks in webapp > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BATIK-939 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-939 > Project: Batik > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Utilities > Affects Versions: 1.7 > Environment: Operating System: Windows XP > Platform: PC > URL: > http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/xmlgraphics-batik-users/201002.mbox/%3c27631790.p...@talk.nabble.com%3E > Reporter: Joel Carranza > Assignee: Batik Developer's Mailing list > Labels: PatchAvailable > Attachments: CleanerThread.java.patch, CleanerThread.java.patch > > > org.apache.batik.util.CleanerThread does not self-terminate, nor is there a > way to dispose of it programatically.
