Henri Yandell commented on IO-99:
---------------------------------
The static initializer for FileCleaner:
static {
reaper.setPriority(Thread.MAX_PRIORITY);
reaper.setDaemon(true);
reaper.start();
}
Do daemon threads cause problems in undeploys?
> 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.
