Jesse, In other words, 3.0.4 has a fairly significant bug and nobody is maintaining it. So, at the very least someone should update the Tapestry 3 website with a WARNING that 3.0.4 has a threading bug. Of course, 3.0.3 has a bunch of bugs that were fixed in 3.0.4 so someone should annotate the website with a WARNING that 3.0.3 has many bugs.
Which sounds like to me, that 3.X is DEAD and no longer being maintained. So, let's have a wake, toss back a few and tell everyone to move onto 4.x which is the only version being maintained at this time. thanks, Mark Mark J.

Really "released" just means the core downloads && website are done. I don't think the 3.0.4 website was updated because the forrest documentation runtime wasn't playing very well, but the actual jars were. After looking at the thread I do recognize that section of code and can say with confidence that it ~has~ been fully fixed in >= 4.1.1 versions. Opening the old project up / using the ant definitions is a real PITA, but if you felt strongly enough about it I suppose you could always make a patch and file it in JIRA. The ultimate fix was achieved in the DisableCachingFilter (for 4.x at least), instead of the ComponentClass enhancer. The synchronized blocks can probably be taken out. (or replaced with more thread efficient backport-util counterparts - unless you are using more recent jres in production where it looks like the old synchronized speed issues have potentially been fixed) On 1/31/07, Mark Stang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Jesse, > I don't think the dynamic url stuff is the issue.
