Yoav, I guess I live under a rock. I was never that aware of Doug Lea's library, though I was aware of the constructs. But an argument for a commons-concurrency library is that it would be a standard library that all the jakarta projects could use, just like ORO or HttpClient. So, I don't think it would be useless, but I don't have time to create/push it in commons either.
I think it is cool that they are going to add a concurrency library to the Java core, but it is a bummer it will only be available in JDK 1.5. A commons-concurrency could help with that as well. -Mark > -----Original Message----- > From: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 10:32 AM > To: Log4J Developers List > Subject: RE: ReadWriterLock usage > > > > Howdy, > > >I'm surprised that > >a concurrency library is not part of Commons.
