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

             Summary: UnpackContent has concurrent thread safety issue, causes 
flowfiles to fail
                 Key: NIFI-2636
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2636
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0
            Reporter: Michael Moser
            Assignee: Michael Moser


Shortly after merging NIFI-2611 I took a last look at the code and noticed that 
each onTrigger() call, when the Packaging Format property is set to "use 
mime.type attribute", that the class instance variable "private Unpacker 
unpacker" can change.  When UnpackContent is set to > 1 concurrent task, this 
isn't thread safe.  Thread A can set the unpacker to the TarUnpacker, but 
before it gets a chance to unpack its tar file, Thread B changes the unpacker 
to a FlowFileUnpackagerV3 which causes Thread A to fail its unpack.
