Hi,
We have found quite a critical bug in
org.snmp4j.util.ThreadPool.execute(WorkerTask task) method. It has an execute
method below
public synchronized void execute(WorkerTask task)
{
while (true)
{
// here we check if some TaskManager-thread is free to execute the
task.
try
{
wait(); // wait until some TaskManager-thread notify that it
finished a previous task
}
catch (InterruptedException ex)
{
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
}
If InterruptedException is thrown, so our thread goes into cycle and keep the
lock on the ThreadPool object, so TaskManager-threads cannot notify that they
became free as soon as they blocked on the ThreadPool. So if the interrupt was
called when NO TaskManager-threads were free to execute the task, so the
process just hangs.
There is a simple way to fix it. We need just to break the cycle if the process
was interrupted and not to execute task like below.
public synchronized void execute(WorkerTask task)
{
try
{
while (true)
{
// here we check if some TaskManager-thread is free to execute
the task
wait();// wait until some TaskManager-thread notify that it
finished a previous task
}
catch (InterruptedException ex)
{
Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
}
}
Thanks,
Dmitrii Krendelev
