--- Comment #8 from Konstantin Kolinko <knst.koli...@gmail.com> 2009-07-14 19:58:30 PST --- You cannot do what you are trying. Once a Web Application is stopped, its resources are to be available for garbage collection, that includes their classloader, context etc. Thus all references to them in global objects are being cleared. In your example you expect that the Runnable will obtain the InitialContext that belongs to the web application. There is a race condition, but in most cases it won't be able to obtain it, because to get it you should go through some static methods, use some global lookup table, and the references there are already cleared. And even if it can, I think that there is no guarantee that the Context will be usable at that time. To dig into the code, see o.a.naming.java.javaURLContextFactory#getInitialContext() and o.a.naming.ContextBindings#unbindClassLoader(..) Well, Mark already mentioned those classes. I do not know, where "shared" code comes into the play. I do not believe that moving the code into webapp will fix/workaround this. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
