>                 Key: STS-279
>                 URL: http://mc4j.org/jira/browse/STS-279
>             Project: Stripes
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Jay Paulsen
>         Assigned To: Tim Fennell
>             Fix For: Release 1.4.2

>
> The private static Map customValidations in DispatcherHelper is never 
> cleared.  Since the key to the map entries are Class objects, when a stripes 
> web application is reloaded, this causes the web application classloader to 
> be pinned in memory and it and all the classes it loaded are never garbage 
> collected.
> I found this with version 1.4 of stripes and tomcat 5.5.17.  The 
> DispatcherHelper code in 1.4.1 looks the same so I imagine the same problem 
> will happen with this version as well.
> As a temporary work around, I placed the following code in the 
> contextDestroyed method of a ContextListener class for my web application:
>       Field f = DispatcherHelper.class.getDeclaredField("customValidations");
>       f.setAccessible(true);
>       Map<Class, Method[]> customValidations = (Map<Class, Method[]>) 
> f.get(DispatcherHelper.class);
>       customValidations.clear();
> It would be nice if stripes exposed a clear method for this field on the 
> DispatcherHelper class so a web app doesn't have to resort this hacked 
> reflection work-around, or better yet, if Stripes had a way to clean it up 
> itself.
