Hi James, thanks for the response. I was not aware of the issue, and certainly have had no issues of it. Potential of a race condition is serious enough to give me pause though.
Regards again, Chris. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of James Williamson Sent: 16 April 2002 13:52 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat 4 + PHP + CGI Thanks Chris, We attempted this but this fairly recent e-mail from mod_webapp's author (attached) stopped us in our tracks. If you view the code you'll see it's not re-entrant, which with Windows threaded environment means you'll get race conditions under load (although it may appear to function OK).
