Julian Sedding commented on FELIX-3104:
---------------------------------------
Thanks for the comment, Felix. Your suggested solution was exactly my first
take on the issue. However it didn't solve the issue.
The ServletContext is provided by the HttpService and shared/reused, thus
registering a new servlet instance doesn't change the context. Maybe the issue
could also be solved by explicitly providing an HttpContext argument to the
registerServlet method. If I read the code correctly, this will cause a new
ServletContext instance to be associated with the servlet.

> causes ClassCastException

> Components: HTTP Service

> CometdServiceImpl uses
> org.mortbay.cometd.continuation.ContinuationCometdServlet in its
> implementation, which in turn extends
> org.mortbay.cometd.AbstractCometdServlet. AbstractCometdServlet places a
> Bayeux object in a servlet context attribute in its init() method, but never
> cleans it up on destroy(). This can lead to a ClassCastException if the
> servlet's init() method is called repeatedly, and the ClassLoader used to
> create the object stored in the servlet context attribute is not the same
> that was used to load the AbstractCometdServlet class. However, this is what
> seems to happen if the cometd bundle is restarted (may only be the case with
> the patch from FELIX-3102 applied).
