patch applied
> ClassLoader memory leak caused by XmlUtil ThreadLocal
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SHINDIG-1132
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1132
> Project: Shindig
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Java
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Environment: When trying to unload the ClassLoader that loaded
> Shindig, for instance in an OSGi environment
> Reporter: Jed Wesley-Smith
> Fix For: 1.1-BETA5
>
>
> The class org.apache.shindig.common.xml.XmlUtil caches a
> javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder in the ThreadLocal reusableBuilder
> variable. These instances are created with the static ErrorHandler instance
> which creates the strong reference to the XmlUtil class that prevents the
> ClassLoader from being reclaimed.
> Currently the only way to turn off this behaviour is for
> DocumentBuilder.reset() to throw an exception.
> We need a way to turn off this caching. Maybe the caching aspect could be
> injected via Guice?
