-----Original Message----- From: Tony Chao [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 2:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Collections: Double-Checked Locking Hi, I just started using commons-collections package. I noticed in the API there's a lot of warnings about doubled-checked locking idiom being broken. If it's broken? Why does commons-collections still use it? Is is theoretically broken, but works in most architectures in practice? What are some architectures that it actually breaks on?
