Simon Temple commented on DIREVE-330:
-------------------------------------

Thanks guys, I can see your very busy with RC1 right now...

I see the extension for graceful shutdown as very useful however when the 
directory is embedded within an AS framework like JBoss (for example!) I feel 
it would be better to leave the shutting down of the directory to the AS 
framework (via the controlled un-deployment process).

In this way any dependencies between AS services can be controlled allowing a 
clean and graceful system shutdown.

Could we simply use an environment property to prohibit the installation of the 
shutdown handler and hence delegate the shutdown responsibility to the 
application server framework?
