Pafsanias Ftakas updated CAMEL-11983:
-------------------------------------
    Description: 
It seems that there is a race condition in the XsltAggregatorStrategy. The 
following code:

{code:java}

if (xslt == null) {
    initialize(oldExchange.getContext());
}
...
xslt.process(oldExchange);

{code}

means that potentially one thread might be still working on the initialize call 
while another thread passes through the gate of the if statement and executes 
the xslt.process() call. If the initialization is not quite complete, the 
XsltBuilder will throw an exception complaining that the template has not been 
set.

I have written a small Spring Boot project (which I am attaching to this Jira 
issue) that demonstrates this. I understand that this only happens when 
parallelization is present during the xslt member initialization above, and 
that it sorts itself out in subsequent calls, but I have managed to see this 
during testing, so it is not that impossible for it to happen.
