Is LocalDevice.send thread-safe?
-
Hello All,
I'm using Bacnet4j 3.2.3 version of library. In fact, I have a situation where-in concurrent threads are calling the send(RemoteDevice d, ConfirmedRequestService serviceRequest) method of a LocalDevice object. As far as my testing, I don't see any errors related to concurrency here, however I would like to ask your opinion on this, whether it is already thread-safe or do I need to call LocalDevice.send inside a reentrant-lock?
Thank you very much.

Hi Manoj,
That's quite an old version! I had a look and it certainly appears that it would be thread safe, since actual transmission of messages is handled by queues in the DefaultTransport class, but given it's quite (not even the latest 3.2.x version) outdated from our perspective our working knowledge or support of it is limited.
