Errors in Seam Remoting marshalling a java.util.Date in a highly concurrent environment
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-4038
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4038
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Remoting
    Affects Versions: 2.1.1.GA
            Reporter: Joshua Davis
            Assignee: Shane Bryzak


We've experienced marshalling errors occasionally when passing a java.util.Date back to JavaScript there are lots of threads issuing requests.   This has been tracked down to the server producing an XML response that has garbage/incorrect values in the <date> element.

The problem is caused by the static 'df' variable in org.jboss.seam.remoting.wrapper.DateWrapper, which is a SimpleDateFormat.   In a highly concurrent environment, calls to this SimpleDateFormat will overlap, and since SimpleDateFormat is not thread-safe, it will yield strange results.
