Carsten Ziegeler commented on FELIX-3053:
-----------------------------------------
With ususal timeout handling, this can't happen as the thread executor catches
Throwables.
Added catching of throwables to the handler task in revision 1150645
> Potential deadlock if event handler throws Throwable and is bypassing timeout
> handling

> If an event handler is bypassing the timeout handling (by configuration) and
> throws a throwable (like IllegalStateException), this can cause deadlocks as
> this is never catched and the internal state of the handlers goes out of sync.
