The Http Server embedded in JDK 6 is a big help developing web services, but I've got situation where I published an Endpoint and then the code crashed and left the server running.

How do you shutdown the embedded server once you've lost the reference to it (or the published Endpoint)?

I use the below code to start it

    this.httpServer = HttpServer.create(addr, 0);
    HttpContext context = this.httpServer.createContext("/", new DocumentProcessHandler());
    this.httpThreadPool = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(this.noOfThreads);
    this.httpServer.setExecutor(this.httpThreadPool);
    this.httpServer.start();

and below code to stop it

        this.httpServer.stop(1);
        this.httpThreadPool.shutdownNow();
