Threading issues with ApplicationContext$ScheduledCallback
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-76
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-76
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 1.1
Reporter: Todd Volkert
Assignee: Todd Volkert
Fix For: 1.2
ApplicationContext$ScheduledCallback extends TimerTask and queues a runnable on
the UI thread when the timer task is called to run. This presents a threading
problem: the timer task may be called to run (on the Timer thread) while the
underlying runnable is running on the UI thread. In this case, the underlying
runnable may call cancel() on the timer task, but since the timer task is
currently running, the underlying runnable will be re-queued on the UI thread,
meaning that it will get called to run after the timer task has been cancelled.
