My understanding of concurrent modifications is that I can receive an
InvalidItemStateException if I have a stale view of the repository when
my session is saved or my transaction is committed. However, I can get
other exceptions using the code below. Furthermore, I thought
Jackrabbit would allow concurrent child node additions to a single node
given the child node names were unique. So I wasn't even expecting an
InvalidItemStateException for the code below.
I understand that locking can prevent the InvalidItemStateException but
I'm using transactions and committing the transaction for the sole
purpose of exposing a lock is something I'd like to avoid at this time.
I'd like to just catch the InvalidItemStateException and alert the user
with a friendly message.
Why do I get the given exceptions for the given code? I can supply full
stacks if necessary; for now, just the class and error message are shown.
