I'm not into politics, but please explain why a "Socket Server" should hang around in memory if it is not referenced?
I was about to say that it may not be referenced internally, but its deployment enabled external reference on sockets.
IIUIC, a socket server will be listening on a socket, i.e. the thread is blocked, and the thread management will maintain the reference to its Runnable entry and GC will not mark it as "garbage". No?
I agree. As long as the thread is executing it isn't a candidate for collection. Stephen.
