Memory leak in WSITServerAuthConfigProvider with WSITServerAuthConfig

[glassfishrobot]

The WSITServerAuthConfigProvider keeps instances of WSITServerAuthConfig in the WeakHashMap serverConfigMap.

The key (referent) to preserve the instances of WSITServerAuthConfig is a String instance which is also used as member appContext in instances of WSITServerAuthConfig.

This creates a reference loop, thus creates memory leaks: Undeployed applications aren't freed.

Environment

glassfish 3.1.2
any jdk
any os

Thanks, do you have a sample app for this? Which WSITServerAuthConfigProvider is this about?

I can't post our ear - let's see if I can provide a minimal example.

Any ear should work as long it uses a secure realm (e.g. using ldap).
