No exception handling for manay timer tasks in broker
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: QPID-3187
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3187
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.8, 0.10
Reporter: Gordon Sim
The assumption in Timer appears to be that no thread will ever throw from
TimerTask::fire(). In practice however few of the implementations of that
method in the broker take any measures to ensure that is the case. If code
called on a timer thread throws there is therefore the risk of the broker
terminating (I have observed such a case for example on the management periodic
processing).
It would probably be advisable to add some generic protection for this.
