http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8106 Concurrency problem in date deserializer Summary: Concurrency problem in date deserializer Product: Axis Version: beta-1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows NT/2K Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: Other Component: Basic Architecture AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The SimpleDateFormat object used in org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.DateDeserialiser is a static object used to parse the dates. This blows up with NumberFormatExceptions when used in a multithreaded client. The problem is that SimpleDateFormat is not threadsafe when used in this way. On the serialiser side it is indirectly protected by syncing on the static calendar object. It either needs to be protected in a sync block or make it non-static.
