Issue in using ThreadLocal
--------------------------
Key: JBAS-8389
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8389
Project: JBoss Application Server
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: Java EE APIs
Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.2.GA
Environment: Application Server - Garbage collection
Reporter: Arunsakthi Kalyanasundharam
Assignee: Shelly McGowan
Fix For: JBossAS-4.2.3.GA
I'm using Threadlocal in a web component. By definition, threadlocal variables should
be cleared by end of execution of the thread. In case Application server, since its using
a thread pool, the threadlocal variables are not cleared / garbage collected.
This is leading to memory leakage (out of memory errors) and inconsistent behavior of the
application since the variables are not getting cleared off.
