Unwanted recursion when Controller.install() is used recursively ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBMICROCONT-421 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBMICROCONT-421 Project: JBoss Microcontainer Issue Type: Bug Components: Dependency Reporter: Adrian Brock There is some unwanted/unrelated recursion happening when Controller.install() is used recurisvely. Imagine there are 3 contexts A,B,C all waiting on dependency D When D is satisified all A,B,C do a further installation to the Controller. What happens is that Controller says A, B and C are resolved The controller then adds A to its "processing" set. When A does its install its spots B and C are ready to move and so it repeats the above for B which will in turn lead to the same thing for C. D installed -> A.start() -> install() -> B.start() -> install() -> C.start() When there are many A, B, C this will lead to a stack overflow. The A, B, C are actually independent so there it should look more like: D installed -> A.start() -> install() -> B.start() -> install() -> C.start() -> install() i.e. the invocations on A, B and C should happen on the same level of the call stack. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
