Paul Benedict commented on STR-3192:
------------------------------------

I don't see anyway around this.

> Why lazy instantiation of the MessageResourcesFactory in Struts 1.2.7?
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: STR-3192
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-3192
>             Project: Struts 1
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.7
>            Reporter: Juan Carlos Blanco Martinez
>            Priority: Critical
>             Fix For: Pending Review

> Double-checked locking issue exists and one of the options to solve this is 
> to use synchronization. In the class org.apache.struts.util.MessageResources, 
> we use LAZY INSTANTIATION to instantiate MessageResourcesFactory:
> public synchronized static MessageResources getMessageResources(String 
> config) {
>     if (defaultFactory == null) {
>         defaultFactory = MessageResourcesFactory.createFactory();
>     }
>     return defaultFactory.createResources(config);
> }
> Why not to use:
> EAGER INSTANTIATION
> private static MessageResourcesFactory defaultFactory = 
> MessageResourcesFactory.createFactory();
> And then:
> public static MessageResources getMessageResources(String config) {
>     return defaultFactory.createResources(config);
> }
> It would allow concurrent access to the method getMessageResources which at 
> least in my case it may be called quite a few times.
