I am using Cordova v2.7.0.

My Main Android Activity looks like this:

{code}
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements CordovaInterface {

CordovaWebView cwv;

...

//Destruction code is as follows

@Override
public void onDestroy() {
  if (cwv != null) {
      cwv.handlePause(true);
      cwv.handleDestroy();
      cwv.removeAllViews();
      cwv.destroy();
      cwv = null;
  }               
  super.onDestroy();
}
{code}


After 1st page is rendered, I cause the destroy event by pressing the device 
BACK button.

This is always resulting in a stacktrace:

It appears CordovaWebView.handleDestroy() is calling loadUrlIntoView(url) which 
reinitialises plugins and spawns a thread to handle potential timeouts.
My stacktrace seems caused by the timeout thread (in CordovaWebView) thinking 
that a timeout has occurred (because the flag loadUrlTimeout does not indicate 
otherwise)

---

I believe my cleanup code onDestroy() is implemented correctly. If not, then 
how should I do it?

BTW, This same problem did not occur in Cordova v2.4

More notes:

* I am suspicious that the problem is introduced by the fix for CB-2458. To 
deliberately cause plugin initialization during destruction seems strange.

* I am suspicious that the removal of baseUrl in CB-2534, means the CB-2458 is 
maybe not even needed anymore, so perhaps original code can be re-instated.
