Ron Sigal commented on JBREM-1257:
----------------------------------

>From David Lloyd:

The inbound (and outbound for that matter) clients tables need to be multi-state and have a shutdown phase (just like a TCP socket can be half-closed).  This way outstanding requests can complete but new requests would be rejected for the interim time period.

> An invocation of org.jboss.remoting.Client.send() will cause the execution of an InboundRequestTask on the server, where InboundRequestTask.run() looks for the related org.jboss.remoting3.remote.InboundClient to execute the request.  An invocation of Client.close() will result in the related InboundClient being removed from its map.  Since the InboundRequestTask is executed in a separate thread, it is possible for the removal of the InboundClient to occur before the InboundRequestTask accesses it.  The result is a NullPointerException.
