The SelectorManager thread of the WebClient would normally shut down after the HttpClient's outer shell, the `HttpClientFacade` has been garbage collected. Unfortunately the `ProxySelector` instance created in `HttpClientHTTPConduit` is a non-static (anonymous) subclass, so it retains a hard reference to the enclosing `HttpClientHTTPConduit` instance and therefore also its `client` field. This gives the SelectorManager thread a hard reference to the `HttpClientFacade`, so the facade can never be garbage collected and the thread never shuts down. Making the class static solves the problem. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
