Robert Lazarski commented on AXIS2C-1663:
-----------------------------------------
Tagging this for possible inclusion into 2.0.1.
fix requires rewriting dir_select() and the
scandir pattern (or adding synchronization), it's non-trivial work.
1. Use opendir/readdir with absolute paths - Eliminate chdir by
building full paths for stat calls. Most robust fix.
2. Use fstatat() with dirfd - Open directory with opendir(), get fd
with dirfd(), use fstatat(fd, name, ...) instead of stat().
POSIX-compliant, avoids chdir.
3. Add mutex - Quick fix: wrap the getcwd/chdir/scandir/chdir sequence
in a mutex. Simple but adds locking overhead.
4. Document as not thread-safe - Mark function as single-threaded
only.

> I'm calling a web service from multiple threads using the sample code
> provided (axis2_svc_client_send_receive). When the web service is invoked in
> parallel in multiple threads, the current working directory of the process
> changes. I was able to track this down and I think the problem is in
> function axutil_dir_handler_list_service_or_module_dirs() which performs
> getcwd and then changes directory to somewhere and back.
