Priority: P2
Bug ID: 53843
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Summary: isAsyncStarted may return false in thread that started
async processing
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: rstoyanc...@yahoo.com
Hardware: PC
Status: NEW
Version: 7.0.30
Component: Catalina
Product: Tomcat 7
After async processing starts in some container thread A, subsequent calls to
request.isAsyncStarted() return true as expected.
However as soon as an application thread B calls asyncContext.dispatch(),
isAsyncStarted() begins to return false even if the actual dispatch has not yet
occurred. For this case the spec says: "the dispatch operation will be delayed
until after the container-initiated dispatch has returned to the container."
For the brief period after dispatch() is called but before the actual dispatch
begins (and DispatcherType becomes ASYNC), isAsyncStarted should return true.
Without that, the return value of isAsyncStarted() may suddenly change while
thread A is still exiting causing it to not recognize that async processing
started and that it needs to exit as quickly as possible.
