title: setContextClassLoader implications
body: <p>I'm trying to clean up Tomcat warnings about memory leaks due to creating my own threads. <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/MemoryLeakProtection" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/MemoryLeakProtection</a> proposes that I call <code>myThread.setContextClassLoader(null)</code> prior to starting the thread. </p>
  
  <p>What is the implication of this call? Will the code in the run() method still be able to resolve classes from my application?</p>
