Hi Ben
Do you know if bcel.jar 5.2 is thread safe? We had some threading
issues and wrote some tests that made is painfully clear that
bcel.jar 5.1 is NOT thread safe (as the apache bcel website make
clear), but then we updated to bcel.jar 5.2 for the heck of it and
we could run 500 threads against it without problem where the 5.1
version would even fail with at little as 2 threads occasionally.
Interesting. Care to provide these tests for trunk?
I see the BCEL FAQ still says it is NOT thread-safe and the change
logs don't indicate that it was made to be thread-safe although my
tests seem to indicate it is. Can you clarify this?
Unfortunately BCEL still uses e.g. a static class repository.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jakarta/bcel/trunk/src/main/java/
org/apache/bcel/Repository.java
So I fear the FAQ is still up to date.
HTH
