Multi-threading issues
----------------------
Key: VFS-326
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-326
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sebb
Assignee: Sebb
SoftRefFilesCache and DefaultFileMonitor use a boolean to communicate between
threads, but don't use synchronisation.
There is no guarantee that the updated value of the boolean will be seen by the
other thread. Adding volatile would fix this.
There are also various private instance fields that are not modified after
construction.
If these were made final, it would improve thread-safety because the fields
would then be published correctly across threads.
