Kathey Marsden updated DERBY-700:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-700_with_NPE_fix_diff.txt

Attached is a patch that fixes the NPE, but there are still issues with the 
multithreaded test.  Sometimes with 9 or more threads in 
startConcurrentDatabaseBoots we get dual boot without any message to the 
derby.log.   I think there is one of two issues here:

1) There is no synchronization across classloaders, so even though we 
synchronize on the databaseName() it is not useful when two threads from 
different ClassLoaders come into the synchronized code.

Not sure what you are saying here. Do you believe the technique of synchronizing on the intern of a String does not work across classloaders? If that does not work, I agree that the the change
is not going to work.

2) Since getting the exFileLock is not within the synchronized code.  It is 
possible that the state of the dbex.lck file on disk changes before the boot.

I am not sure how to resolve these issues, especially 1.  I'd appreciate any 
advice on the issue.

Thanks

Kathey

Derby does not prevent dual boot from two different classloaders on Linux.
To reproduce run the  program DualBootRepro with no derby jars in your 
classpath. The program assumes derby.jar is in 10.1.2.1/derby.jar, you can 
change the location by changing the DERBY_LIB_DIR variable.
On Linux the output is:
$java -cp . DualBootRepro
Loading derby from file:10.1.2.1/derby.jar
10.1.2.1/derby.jar
Booted database in loader [EMAIL PROTECTED]
FAIL: Booted database in 2nd loader [EMAIL PROTECTED]
On Windows I get the expected output.
$ java -cp . DualBootRepro
Loading derby from file:10.1.2.1/derby.jar
10.1.2.1/derby.jar
Booted database in loader [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PASS: Expected exception for dualboot:Another instance of Derby may have 
already booted the database D:\marsden\repro\dualboot\mydb.
