             Summary: Client hangs with more than 1 time-out
                 Key: UIMA-4210
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4210
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Eclipse plugins
    Affects Versions: 2.4.2AS
         Environment: Java 7, Mac OS
            Reporter: Frank Xu


The client hangs if the execution has two time-outs. After debugging into the 
issue, we figure out that the resending mechanism has some bugs in it. Here are 
the detailed description.

Please review the necessity for the invocation of sendCas(). In our system, we 
don't have to resend the cas to process again. Please provide a configuration 
so that we don't have to resend the case every time there is a time out.

Whenever there is the first time-out, 
BaseUIMAAsynchronousEngine_impl#notifyOnTimout() is invoked and it hangs when 
it tries to invoke sendCase() at line 2385. I believe the reason is that the 
sendCase() is a synchronized method and a potential threading issue causes this 
thread hang over there. Please be noted that this block is also synchronized.

Then when there is a second time-out, it will be hanging in the very beginning 
of the method notifyOnTimeout() and cannot clear the time-out case from the cas 
list, which hangs the entire client.
