Re: [rules-users] Memory leak due CompositeClassLoader

The thing is that it is not my webapp that creates the RuleBaseConfiguration and the RuleBase, it is another component that is loaded by the application server, and the rules are shared between webapps. So I cannot dispose of these objects. This other component loads lazily the RuleBase on first call, that is why when the RuleBaseConfiguration is instantiated, the context class loader is the one of my webapp. The only workaround I found is to hook a listener when my webapp is deployed, temporarily change the context class loader of the current Thread, force the load of the RuleBase. That way the CompositeClassLoader does not have a reference to the class loader of my webapp. But that is quite ugly... I will see with the developers of this other component if migrating to 6.x is a possibility, but I doubt it in the near future. Thanks anyway for the suggestions.

The composite classloader was replaced in 6.x, so the newer versions should not have this kind of problems.
