Class SdkThreadLocals

java.lang.Object

com.amazonaws.SdkThreadLocals

public final class SdkThreadLocals
extends Object

Utility class to manage ThreadLocal storage within the AWS SDK.

ThreadLocal removal is especially relevant when the AWS SDK is used in an application server that manages a pool of threads across many applications (for example Tomcat or Glassfish). If a ThreadLocal is not cleared on application shutdown and the ThreadLocal value is a class from the application classloader then the application classloader cannot be garbage collected until the ThreadLocal is set again or the thread is disposed of (Glassfish attempts thread renewal on occasion to help with this).
