If you deploy a war with a loader-repository configured, the domain gets leaked; your patch above will fix that. But, in this case it's not such a big deal, as the war's classloader gets removed from the leaked domain, and the leaked domain's parent is the default domain. So, my FIELD granularity classloader leak problem is something else. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4142162#...
