According to the javadoc of the jobexecutor servlet:

/**

• starts the job executor on init and closes the
• jbpm configuration upon destroy. The closing of the
• jbpm configuration will also shut down the job executor
• thread pool.

There is no destroy method, so nothing wil happen. Threads keep running. Secondly, I'm not sure closing the jBPM context is what we want there. Can't we just call jobExecutor.stop()? In case we just want to stop it?

A stop/start method on the servlet with a param is also handy.... e.g. from the webconsole????
