----------------------------------------

             Summary: camel-python (Jython) - PythonExpression is not thread 
safe
                 Key: CAMEL-24690
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-24690
             Project: Camel
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.22.0
            Reporter: Federico Mariani


{{PythonExpression}} creates one {{PythonInterpreter}} per expression and 
{{evaluate}} does

{code:java}
compiler.set("exchange", exchange);
compiler.set("body", exchange.getMessage().getBody());
... 
PyObject out = compiler.eval(compiledExpression);
...
finally { compiler.cleanup(); }
{code}

with no synchronization. Two exchanges evaluated concurrently on the same 
expression interleave the {{set()}} calls on the interpreter's shared globals, 
so thread A can evaluate with thread B's body, and {{cleanup()}} from one 
thread runs while the other is mid-eval. {{PythonLanguage.evaluate}} has the 
same race on the shared interpreter.

Also: every result is stringified with {{out.toString()}} so lists, dicts and 
numbers lose their type, and all failures, including runtime ones, are reported 
as {{ExpressionIllegalSyntaxException}}.

Suggested fix: run the compiled {{PyCode}} with per-call locals 
({{Py.runCode(code, locals, globals)}}) instead of mutating the interpreter 
globals, or synchronize / use a ThreadLocal interpreter; and convert results 
through {{__tojava__}} instead of {{toString}}. Found while reviewing the 
scripting languages for the benchmark comparison (not benchmarked).

----
_Found during a benchmark review of camel-groovy and the other scripting 
languages (camel-performance-tests branch camel-groovy-perf, 
tests/camel-jmh/groovy-results, JMH 1.37, JDK 21, one M1 Pro laptop). A 
candidate fix with tests exists on the local apache/camel branch 
camel-perf-all-fixes; a PR follows._
