Unregistering threads does not work correctly

["Alex Yakushev" <ayakushev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Enhydra.unRegister( Thread ) does not propery remove all the references to the thread, which prevents the thread from being garbage collected.  The Enhydra.register(Thread, Application) method adds the thread into htAppCount and applications hashtables, and also makes calls to DODS.register(Thread, DatatbaseManager) and DODS.registerLogChannel( Thread, LogChannel ).  Each of those calls adds a reference to the thread to a static hashtable in the DODS class.

 

The unRegister( Thread ) method removes the thread from htAppCount and applications hashtables, and calls DODS.unregister(Thread) which removes the thread from the databaseManagers hashtable, but the reference in logChannels is never removed.

 

It looks like the whole mess can be fixed by adding a call to DODS.unregisterLogChannel(Thread), but I don't quite understand what's going on with the LogChannels.
