Hi Christopher, Some days ago I made an entry in the Tomcat Wiki with such a OutputStream decorator class: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/KnownIssues#ImageIOIssues I see that you changed the flush() method in the decorator class to pass flush() calls to the underlying stream as long as the stream is set to be "active". The reason that I didn't make this call-through was because it seems that flush() is the only method called by the ImageIO (when the Image Writer is garbage collected), and by preventing any pass-through of flush(), no errors can occur. When flush() of the decorator class passes its call to the original stream as long as it's active, there may be a race condition between the request processing thread of the Servlet and the GC thread which collects the Image Writer, which possibly (but highly unlikely) could cause a flush() call (from GC thread) on the already closed stream, even if the "isActive" flag is volatile (please correct me if I'm wrong - I'm not a expert in how GC is working). Also, it seems that ImageIO is calling flush() a few times while writing an image, and I wanted to avoid the unnecessary flush() calls. ;-) Regards, Konstantin Preißer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
