> Affects Versions: 2.0.9
> Environment: Window XP, Apache Tomcat 5.5.23, Java 5, Eclise 3.2
> Reporter: Décio Heinzelmann Luckow
> Fix For: 2.1.3

> Attachments: InterceptorDestroy.diff

>
> I was testing the Interceptor behavior, and put an breakpoint inside the
> methods init and destroy of Interceptor (TestInterceptor created). The init
> method was ok, the breakpoint stopped on the server startup.
> To test the breakpoint of destroy method I does:
> - normal shutdown of tomcat (via Tomcat plugin in Eclipse)
> - redeploy the application
> - changed some classes to tomcat do the automatic reload
> But any of this cases the destroy method was called. I seach in the source
> code to find it and understand when it is called, but I don´t found.
> I use the 2.09 version, but is possible that it occurs in all versions of
> Struts2
> Attached the conversation about this in dev-list
