resources.report.rules.findbugs.IS2_INCONSISTENT_SYNC.html Maven / Gradle / Ivy

The fields of this class appear to be accessed inconsistently with respect to synchronization.  This bug report indicates that the bug pattern detector judged that

• The class contains a mix of locked and unlocked accesses,
• The class is not annotated as javax.annotation.concurrent.NotThreadSafe,
• At least one locked access was performed by one of the class's own methods, and
• The number of unsynchronized field accesses (reads and writes) was no more than one third of all accesses, with writes being weighed twice as high as reads

A typical bug matching this bug pattern is forgetting to synchronize one of the methods in a class that is intended to be thread-safe.

You can select the nodes labeled "Unsynchronized access" to show the code locations where the detector believed that a field was accessed without synchronization.

Note that there are various sources of inaccuracy in this detector; for example, the detector cannot statically detect all situations in which a lock is held.  Also, even when the detector is accurate in distinguishing locked vs. unlocked accesses, the code in question may still be correct.
