[Johannes Odland (JIRA)]

Johannes Odland created AS7-3601:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Component context not available on spawned threads
                 Key: AS7-3601
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3601
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Naming
    Affects Versions: 7.1.0.CR1b
            Reporter: Johannes Odland
            Assignee: John Bailey


When a request is processed, the JavaNamespaceSetup pushes an InjectedEENamespaceContextSelector onto a ThreadLocalStack, making the app and component contexts available for lookups through InitialContext().lookup().

As a result, the application and component contexts are only available on the same thread as the request, and not on threads spawned by the application itself. 
Many applications, such as Solr,  spawns its own threads for doing asynchronous processing. These are not able to access the JNDI component context (java:comp/env/).


Perhaps one should use InheritableThreadLocal to store the selector instead?
