[Hsqldb-developers] HsqlTimer.shutdown()

[Tobias B. <tob...@da...>]

hi all,
i noticed that after shutting down an embedded database, the thread of
the HsqlTimer is still running. i quickly checked the source code, but
i could not find a reference to HsqlTimer.shutdown(), so i think it is
never called.

this results in a problem for example when using hsqldb embedded in a
webapp. the threads keeps on running and the webapp classloader cannot
be GCed.

my workaround would be to call DatabaseManager.getTimer().shutdown()
after my webapp is shutdown. what is your opinion ?

regards, toby
