>
> There is a race condition in the jUDDI codebase which causes transient 
> registry failures.
> The symptom of the race condition is the following error message
>   E_busy (10400) The request cannot be processed at the current time. The 
> Registry is currently unavailable.
> The class containing the race condition is 
> org.apache.juddi.registry.local.Registry
> Every call to Registry.getRegistry() results in the recreation and 
> initialisation of a global variable (registry). As the assignment of the 
> global variable is made *before* the initialisation method is called there 
> exists a window of opportunity whereby a caller can obtain a reference to an 
> uninitialised registry. The consequence of this is that calls to 
> RegistryEngine.isAvailable() can return false.
> I'm not sure why the RegistryEngine is being recreated on every call but the 
> current code is unsafe (even if ignoring multiprocessor memory models). There 
> should not be a global reference to the registry if it is a requirement to 
> recreate it on every invocation. If it is not a requirement then the 
> initialisation should really be occurring within a static block.
