[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-2676?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-2676: --------------------------------------- To elaborate more on an analogy I'm alluding to is that a non-strict DNA is the moral equivalent of a java timed wait. If you do {code} synchroized(foo) { foo.wait(1000); } {code} you may wait 1000 ms, but there isn't a hard guarantee either way - you may be spuriously woken up early and you may due to other factors won't necessarily resume after exactly 1000 ms. So with the wait and the non-strict DNA it would be considered a best practice (or in the DNA case basically required given the number of wake-ups that can occur) to use some logic to ensure that the wait exit condition has been met: {code} synchronized(foo) { while (!done) { foo.wait(timeRemaining); } } {code} So if you don't strictly want to wait, then you should probably have translator logic that knows a little more about when it can/should resume. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
