Investigate removing the antiGC thread in embedded Derby
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-1439
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1439
Project: Derby
Type: Improvement
Components: Services
Reporter: Daniel John Debrunner
Priority: Minor
The antiGC thread was originally created to avoid the DriverManager class being
garbage collected when no refrences existed to it and it had loaded the
embedded JDBC driver (and hence shutting down the engine). This was an issue
with JDK 1.1. Since Derby does not support jdk1.1 and garbage collection of
classes is clearly defined, it is possible the thread serves no useful purpose.
