Really. I wouldn't have expected to. For example if I had a Servlet such as
class TestServlet extends HttpServlet {
private String instance1 = "never to be assigned again";
private final static String instance2 = "never to be assigned again
too";
...
}
I would have to call synchronize(this) every single time I needed to access
instance1 and instance2? How could this be (I'm only accessing and never
setting)? Could you explain?
