Hi Pim, I I were to leave the method as is, would the method not be thread-safe? I ask because this method is part of a library I am using. Thanks-

Kind regards,Pim From: Andy [mailto:andrh...@hotmail.com] Sent: zaterdag 4 december 2010 22:08 To: user@xmlbeans.apache.org Subject: Thread-safety question Hi, I have a method below that unmarshals an input stream and since I will have many concurrent invocations of this method, I was wondering if there would be any Thread-safety issues? I'm not a threading expert but just wanted to make sure the XmlObject.Factory.parse() method wouldn't cause any issues. protected final Object unmarshalInputStream(InputStream inputStream) throws XmlMappingException, IOException { try { XmlObject object = XmlObject.Factory.parse(inputStream, getXmlOptions()); validate(object); return object; } catch (XmlException ex) { throw convertXmlBeansException(ex, false); } } Thanks-
