RFR(S): 8155590: Dubious collection management in sun.net.www.http.KeepAliveCache

Hi Vyom,

thanks for your feedback.

I'm not so sure about dropping "synchronized". In the new remove method of ClientVector we are iterating ourself. If this is not done under synchronization, there is risk to run into a ConcurrentModificationException. But under the assumption that all access to ClientVector comes from synchronized methods of KeepAliveCache, one could argue to drop all synchronized modifiers for ClientVector, though.

Let's wait for other opinions :)

Best regards
Christoph

Hi Christoph,

Thanks for doing this, i think you don't need to synchronize the "remove(HttpClient h)".  This remove is get called from synchronize "remove (HttpClient h, Object obj)" and the underline data structure is which is java.util.Vector(ClientVector extends java.util.Stack) is also thread safe.

What do you think ?

Thanks,

Vyom
