• public static void stopThreadedReferenceManager()

  This method can be used to ensure that no threaded created by a reference manager will be active. This is useful if the Groovy runtime itself is loaded through a class loader which should be disposed off. Without calling this method and if a threaded reference manager is active the class loader cannot be unloaded! Per default no threaded manager will be used.

  Since:
