[ https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFWIP-304?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] Jeff Mesnil commented on WFWIP-304: ----------------------------------- What's the point of this use case? This is incorrect: {code} Config config = resolver.getConfig(); response.append(config.getValue("test", String.class)); resolver.releaseConfig(config); {code} By releasing the config here, you have release it for the *whole* deployment. What would happen if another endpoint is using this Config object? Would its configsources and converters be closed? The lifecycle of a ConfigSource is underspecified. Closing a config source or a converter when a config is released *without* a clear specification of the Config lifecycle and resource ownership will lead to inconsistent behaviour. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.13.8#713008)
