proton-c/src/object/map.c <https://reviews.apache.org/r/33623/#comment132288> These decrefs can trigger finalizers which could indirectly cause more entries to be deleted from the map thereby causing the code to become reentrant. To make that safe, you want the decrefs to be the last thing you do so that all the structural modifications to the entries are complete before that can happen. - Rafael Schloming On April 28, 2015, 10:57 a.m., Gordon Sim wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
