Make EJBUtil multi-thread aware
-------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-4753
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4753
Project: Axis2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: databinding
Affects Versions: 1.5.1
Environment: WebLogic
Reporter: William Walsh
We found that we had problems integrating Axis2 with WebLogic in that we
couldn't re-use any of the EJB receiver code apparently because the security
established at InitialContext creation
(org.apache.axis2.rpc.receivers.ejb.EJBUtil) was then lost when
org.apache.axis2.rpc.receivers.ejb.EJBUtil.EJBClientWorker invoked its run
method in a separate thread for the EJB service, causing a WebLogic security
error invoking the service. We checked with Oracle and they feel it's most
likely that the separate threads are the cause as WLS doesn't pass/propagate
subjects across threads. Thus the second thread that does the actual
invocation of the service doesn't have the authentication done in the first
thread when the InitialContext is created, which is successfully validated by
our login module.
We coded our own receiver to avoid this additional threading—essentially
duplicating the Axis2 functionality. I've been told that for EJB environments
that threading should not be used, leaving it to the container environment to
manage.

Had confirmation from Martin Gainty and request to open this JIRA case:
"
yep the statics of EJBUtil will not work in a multi-threaded environment as
seen here
public class EJBUtil {
public static final java.lang.String EJB_JNDI_NAME = "beanJndiName";
"
