I have a timer thread inside a custom IoFilter that checks for

It should be safe as long as your business logic is thread safe. If
not, please let us know.
Great. So, just to be clear: if my filter is thread safe w.r.t. its
own timer thread, and my IoHandler is also thread safe within the
MINA model, this is the correct way to do this kind of thing? It
doesn't hurt that IoFilter.messageReceived () is being called by my
timer thread rather than one of MINA's IO processing threads?
Cheers,
Matthew.
