Comment 1 Konstantin Kolinko 2017-01-21 09:22:34 UTC
A workaround for this Oracle JRE bug was added to memory leaks protection code in Tomcat 7.0.74 (r1778068), 8.5.11 (r1778065), 9.0.0.M17 (r1778061)

The fix has not been applied to Tomcat 8.0 yet.

Note that compilation of SafeForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory requires Java 7 and later. People who use two separate Eclipse projects for Tomcat 7 (separating code that requires java 6 and java 7 into different projects) need to update their include / exclude patterns.

The sample projects were updated in r1779707, to be in 7.0.76.
Comment 2 Konstantin Kolinko 2017-01-21 09:26:33 UTC
Moving the issue to Tomcat 8.0, as the fix has not been applied there yet.

As a variant, we can add the helper class but keep the protection feature off by default. This may wait a while, to get more feedback.

Fixed in r1780268 for 8.0.42 onwards.
