I don't think they point to a common issue. Also, note that STAF itself is multi-threaded application and its services that submit STAF service requests are multi-threaded. So, we have no problems using STAF in a multi-threaded way.
As I showed you in my previous example, I have no problem saving a STAFString into a STAFString that is in a struct. So, my guess is you are doing something wrong. But, without your code, I can't say what. You can get RC 5 (Handle Does Not Exist) with error message "HandleManager::updateTimestamp() failed to update handle <Handle#> when trying to submit a STAF service request using a STAF handle that does not exist on the machine that is submitting the STAF service request. In the example below , I created a static STAF handle on my local machine and then I can then successfully submit a STAF service request with it. However, if this STAF handle is deleted and then I try to submit a STAF service request using it, it will fail with RC 5 (Handle Does Not Exist). C:\>STAF local HANDLE CREATE HANDLE NAME MyHandle Response -------- 19 C:\>set STAF_STATIC_HANDLE=19 C:\>STAF local PING PING Response -------- PONG C:\>STAF local HANDLE DELETE HANDLE 19 Response -------- C:\>STAF local PING PING Error submitting request, RC: 5 Additional info --------------- HandleManager::updateTimestamp() failed to update handle 19 C:\>set STAF_STATIC_HANDLE= C:\>STAF local PING PING Response -------- PONG So, my guess is that you're not using a valid existing STAF handle when you get this error. -------------------------------------------------------------- Sharon Lucas IBM Austin, luc...@us.ibm.com (512) 286-7313 or Tieline 363-7313 From: "Dedhia, Hardik" <hardik.ded...@netapp.com> To: <staf-users@lists.sourceforge.net>, Sharon Lucas/Austin/IBM@IBMUS, Date: 08/10/2011 09:57 AM Subject: [staf-users] Regarding HandleManager::updateTimestamp() failed to update handle Hi, I am trying to start multiple threads to listen for messages for separate handles. I am facing the following issues: · I’m not able to save STAFString into a strcut – I get a seg fault in STAFStringConstructCopy() · I’m getting a HandleManager::updateTimestamp() failed to update handle xxxx when I run the listening thread Do both of these point to a common issue? Is multithreading in STAF advised? What is a good design for the same if allowed? Thanks, Hardik. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
