the SQL Server JDBC Driver in 6.0.35

I expect that by putting the SQL Server JDBC4 driver jar
(sqljdbc4.jar) into ${CATALINA_HOME}/lib, that the driver would
be automatically available upon server start.  As expected, this
works in 6.0.33, but fails in 6.0.35.  It seems that the fix to
Bug 51640 is the cause of this, and in fact, setting
driverManagerProtection to false in the
JreMemoryLeakPreventionListener allows this to work in 6.0.35 as
well.  I would not have expected that a change to the MemoryLeak
Listener would have changed the behavior of the JDBC driver.

I don't know the internals of the SQL Server driver, so I don't
know exactly why this is happening.  The MySQL driver loads
without any issue.

Why should the driver being loaded into memory if no one uses it?
Actually, a driver is loaded into the container's classloader cache
upon first access. This is what happens at least for me with the
Oracle driver.

Everything else does not make sense to me.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  It's not loading the driver into memory, but
rather registering it with the DriverManager that has changed, so
that it can be loaded on the first request.  This is no longer
occurring.

How are you accessing the driver?

Are you using JDBC directly, or are you creating a JNDI pooled connection and letting Tomcat manage it.

. . . . just my two questions
