Timothy Bish commented on AMQCPP-407:
-------------------------------------
The scenario shown above shouldn't happen as the ActiveMQConnection should go
through the close() cycle when the destructor is called if it hasn't already
been closed. During the close the Transports have their close method called
which eventually reaches IOTransport::close. The IOTransport will stop its
dispatch thread which is the thread that's calling the onException method via
the registered ExceptionListsner. In IOTransport close the dispatch thread is
joined which should halt ActiveMQConnection close until such time as the last
onException fire is finished. So the solution here is to determine what is
causing this to not happen.
Adding a get / set synchronization won't likely help here or worse will make
the problem even more random and therefore much harder to reproduce and fix.
The issue being that a synchronization is only serializing the get / set
operation on exception listener, so if your scenario above is indeed happening
there's still nothing stopping the event firing from reading the exception
listener before another thread sets it to null. Locking the entire onExcption
callback chain will most likely lead to an unexpected deadlock as the code
attempts to deal with errors from the exception thread which will be holding
locks that block the other threads accessing the ActiveMQConnection and
associated resources.
Mutex's are often treated as a panacea for threading problems.
If you can readily reproduce this then I'd advise stepping into the IOException
close method or adding some console output in there to see if the close is
bypassing the Thread join because of some other exception. One solution could
be to use a finalizer class in there to ensure that the thread is always joined.
