[jira] [Created] (CAMEL-6452) FileUtil.getDefaultTempDir() causes a classloader leak in webapps

             Summary: FileUtil.getDefaultTempDir() causes a classloader leak in webapps
                 Key: CAMEL-6452
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-6452
             Project: Camel
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: camel-core
    Affects Versions: 2.10.4
         Environment: tomcat 7, spring 3.2
            Reporter: Sanjay Deshmukh


FileUtil.getDefaultTempDir() registers a JVM shutdown hook to delete the temporary directory it creates. We are using camel in a web application in Tomcat that gets dynamically reloaded as updates are available, so the JVM is normally never shut down. This is causing 'camel-tmp-*' directories to linger in $CATALINA_HOME/temp, and - more importantly - classloader leaks, which are a major problem for us.

If the thread that gets registered as the shutdown hook were stored in a class variable, I could unregister it when the application is being unloaded.
