Andreas Veithen commented on WSCOMMONS-489:
-------------------------------------------

Anyone using Axiom together with a broken StAX parser implementation may 
obviously run into issues. As your case shows, this applies in particular to 
early versions of Sun's 1.6 JRE _IF_ the user chooses to exclude the Woodstox 
dependency (which is the recommended StAX parser implementation for Axiom).

I was able to reproduce the issue with 1.6.0.5. Once I find a proper way to 
distinguish broken versions of SJSXP, I will update the StAX dialect detector 
to apply a workaround for the thread safety issue. However, since I only have 
access to that particular JRE version at work and not at home, this might take 
some time.

> StAXUtil uses a single XMLInputFactory or XMLOutputFactory instance (per 
> classloader). This means that it makes the assumption that these instances 
> are thread safe. However, there is nothing in the StAX specs that guarantees 
> that, and Sun's implementation in JDK 6 is not thread safe, at least with the 
> default properties [1] [2].
