Hi Stuart, (1) and (2) no, best use new instances per thread, not you can cache class descriptors by providing the same class resolver to each instance.
(3) and (4) depends who's objects your talking about... Castor can use reflection over your own classes and as such question is back towards you. ;-) It can also use generated classes from Castor SourceGenerator, these use java.util.ArrayList so would be an issue.

All Hi can someone take a stab an answering this for me? Thanks, Stuart ==== All, Can anyone tell me which parts of Castor's XML framework are thread safe (or not)? Actually let me ask some specific questions: (1) Can multiple threads use the same Unmarshaller? (2) Can multiple threads use the same Marshaller? (3) Can the unmarshalled objects be read (get field values etc...) by multiple threads safely? (4) Can the unmarshalled objects be changed (change field values) by multiple threads safely? Since I am only using the XML framework I think the above is all I need to worry about. Thanks for your help. Stuart The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged.
