Hi James,

thanks for reporting this. :)

Sadly I could not replicate the problem with groovy 2.4.5 (on windows) and your testcase (tried different times and different amounts of threads).

I guess that's just caused by platform differences as I do not remember any changes in 2.4.5 related to this problem and https://github.com/apache/incubator-groovy/blob/d3bc07e5c2af7f5fbd344a961d549772de0680c7/src/main/org/codehaus/groovy/runtime/GroovyCategorySupport.java looks like it could have concurrency issues.

When using groovy use block, we randomly get groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException when trying to access a property off a category.

or groovy.lang.MissingMethodException when trying to access a method from a category.

On the server, either one of these exceptions to appear every few days or weeks.

The code below will reproduce this error:

class TestCategory {
    def static String test(String self, String foo) {
        return self + foo
    }
}

def test = {
    100.times {
        sleep( 10 )
        use(TestCategory) {
            println "foo".test(' bar')
        }
        sleep( 20 )
    }
}

100.times {
    Thread.start test
}

I found a similar issue GROOVY-2105 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-2105> which contains a test that reproduces this problem on Linux. Looking back the fix that was implemented for this ticket was to add synchronized to 3 methods. These changes were late removed in a refactor of GroovyCategorySupport.

NOTE: problem does not happen 100% of the time. You may have to play with the number of threads to generate the exception. What I have attached generates the exception on my linux box most of the time.

I have reproduced these exceptions on Cent O/S version 6.4 with 64 Bit JDK 1.8 and groovy 2.4.4
