             Summary: Thread safety issue in VFSClassLoader - NullPointerException thrown
                 Key: VFS-683
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-683
             Project: Commons VFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.2
            Reporter: Daryl Odnert


In my application, I had two instances of the {{VFSClassLoader}}, each of which was being used in a distinct thread. Both {{VFSClassLoader}} instances refer to the same compressed file resource described by a {{FileObject}} that is passed to the class loader's constructor. Intermittently, the application throws an exception with the stack trace shown below. So, there seems to be either a race condition in the code or an undocumented assumption here. If it is unsupported for two {{VFSClassLoader}} instances to refer to the same resource (file), then that assumption should be documented. But if that is not the case, then there is a race condition bug in the implementation.
