Oleg Kalnichevski updated HTTPCLIENT-1230:
------------------------------------------
Component/s: (was: HttpClient)
Documentation
Fix Version/s: 4.2.2
BasicClientConnectionManager _can_ be safely used by multiple threads but only
one thread can lease the connection at a time. There is basically no reason for
using this connection manager in standalone applications instead of
PoolingClientConnectionManager. BasicClientConnectionManager should only be
used inside an EJB container where object pools are to be managed by the
container. Unless you need to use HttpClient inside a stateless EJB simply use
PoolingClientConnectionManager.
I'll make sure javadocs are updated accordingly.

> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.2.2

> I would like to suggest removing the @ThreadSafe annotation on
> BasicClientConnectionManager. The javadoc clearly notes "it ought to be used
> by one execution thread only". Seems like a basic contradiction.
> Perhaps I am fundamentally not understanding the @ThreadSafe annotation. I
> thought that meant the class either has no static fields and/or creates all
> new objects and/or handles all necessary synchronization so that any number
> of threads may share an instance. What does it mean here, on a class that
> wraps a single connection for which access must be synchronized?
> Yes, after this problem bit us we switched to using
> PoolingClientConnectionManager.
> Thanks for considering this issue.
