Make PolicySubject of AxisDescription thread-safe 
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: AXIS2-4179
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4179
             Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Nandana Mihindukulasooriya
            Assignee: Nandana Mihindukulasooriya


Each AxisDescription instance (AxisService, AxisOperation, etc.) has a 
"PolicySubject" field containing the policy components (policy, policy 
reference) attached at that subject. The problem is that this PolicySubject 
class is not thread safe - it maintains a HashMap with all policy components 
(mapped by their id). So when users are somehow modifying the policy of a 
subject (attaching new components or removing some) if meanwhile a service 
execution calls MessageContext.getEffectivePolicy(), which iterates over the 
policy components, a ConcurrentModificationException is thrown. In that case 
the service invocation will fail and a fault will be send to the client.
