Andreas Veithen commented on WSCOMMONS-489: ------------------------------------------- Ben, There have been too many changes between 1.2.7 and HEAD in the part of the code affected by this fix (for example, the entire StAX dialect mechanism is new in 1.2.9), so that backporting the change using individual patches is not feasible. What is actually preventing you from using 1.2.9-SNAPSHOT? Andreas > StAXUtils incorrectly assumes that XMLInputFactory and XMLOutputFactory > instances are thread safe > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: WSCOMMONS-489 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-489 > Project: WS-Commons > Issue Type: Bug > Components: AXIOM > Affects Versions: Axiom 1.2.8 > Reporter: Andreas Veithen > Assignee: Andreas Veithen > Fix For: Axiom 1.2.9 > > > StAXUtil uses a single XMLInputFactory or XMLOutputFactory instance (per > classloader). This means that it makes the assumption that these instances > are thread safe. However, there is nothing in the StAX specs that guarantees > that, and Sun's implementation in JDK 6 is not thread safe, at least with the > default properties [1] [2]. > [1] > http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/Java-Document/6.0-JDK-Modules-com.sun/xml/com/sun/xml/internal/stream/XMLInputFactoryImpl.java.htm > [2] > http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/Java-Document/6.0-JDK-Modules-com.sun/xml/com/sun/xml/internal/stream/XMLOutputFactoryImpl.java.htm -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
