Ben Craig commented on THRIFT-3224:
-----------------------------------

updated my pull request.  Take a look at that when you get a chance.  I haven't 
had time to test the changes.  I'm hoping to add some tests tomorrow, and 
hopefully push this through at that point.

> Application bahavior utilizing TNamedPipeServer is unpredictable due misuse 
> of TAutoHandle.
> Project uses TAutoHandle class, an analogy of std::unique_ptr, for managing 
> WIN32 handles. The dangerous members of this concept are: the direct getter 
> "HANDLE TAutoHandle::h" and release method "void __thiscall 
> TAutoHandle::release()" 
> Below code citation introduces serous bug:
> {code:java}
> {
>     TAutoCrit lock(pipe_protect_);
>     GlobalOutput.printf("Client connected.");
>     shared_ptr<TPipe> client(new TPipe(Pipe_.h));
>     Pipe_.release();
> }
> {code}
> The getter is  used in TNamedPipeServer::acceptImpl() to pass internal  
> handle value to c-tor of TPipe and just after c-tion HANDLE__thiscall 
> TAutoHandle::release() is called to release ownership. That means the TPipe 
> object is expected to take ownership of the resource, but if TPipe c-tor 
> throws the d-tor of TAutoHandle is called releasing the resource and the 
> incomplete TPipe object does the same. Since now it is impossible to ensure 
> that the second free of the handle value was not performed on a resource that 
> was opened in meantime by other thread.
> I propose to solve the issue by ensuring the handle is not owned by two 
> objects at a time.
