Kathey Marsden commented on DERBY-3745:
---------------------------------------
The only thing I can think of to do to fix this is to
1) Document that derby.jar requires
getContextClassLoader/setContextClasssLoader privileges.
2) Change the code to attempt to set the context class loader to null for these
threads if we have permissions and ignore security exceptions if we are not
able to. (Leave the potential for class loader leaks)
3) Change sample, test and default policy files to have these privileges.
Thoughts?

> A user reported potential class loader leaks in Derby
> ...The first one looks like Derby created a long-running
> thread and copying the context class loader. To fix, the
> context class loader should be saved/set/restored around the
> creation of the new thread so that it copies some benign class
> loader instead (e.g., null or getClass().getClassLoader()):
