Memory leak when Un-deploying processes that contain XSL stylesheets
--------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: ODE-574
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ODE-574
             Project: ODE
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: BPEL Compilation/Parsing, BPEL Runtime
         Environment: N/A
            Reporter: Ciaran Jessup


Currently if the BPEL process contains any XSL stylesheets it will not free up 
*all* the memory that was allocated during the compilation/dehydration of the 
process.  This seems to be because there is a cache of XSLTemplates stored in 
the XSLTransformHandler, and these XSLTemplates can sometimes contain 
(transitive) references back to the OProcess object instances (via for example 
the URIResolvers/XPAth Expressions).   Unfortunately this cache lives forever 
(crucially even after the process has been un-deployed)  because of this the 
object graph hanging from the OProcess object instance is never available for 
the GC to pick-off.

There is also another reference issue in the ErrorListener that is associated 
with the XSLTransformHandler instance, but I don't really understand that bit 
of code just as yet, a patch for the former issue follows, I'm reviewing the 
ErrorListener issue currently.
