> BTW I always try to use a VFS manager single threaded, I am not completely sure but most of the code looks like this was the intended use anyway :) My employer has a rather large Tomcat application which uses commons-vfs, heavily multi-threaded of course. Not my department (I don't do Java usually), but I sometimes helped with debugging, and commons-vfs was often a big problem. It pretends to be thread-safe, but sometimes locks too much (addressed by this PR initially), and sometimes locks too little (now addressed by this PR as well). Everything is wrong with commons-vfs's thread-safety, and I'm trying to help fix it. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
