[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (HTTPASYNC-7) Possible race condition
in BasicFuture
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPASYNC-7?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13102337#comment-13102337 ]

Rolf, are you sure about that? Both methods are synchronized so only one of them can access the internal state of the object at a time and the sequence of modification of the 'completed' and 'result' instance variables should not matter.

> In the complete() method inside the BasicFuture class exists a possible race condition at line 98 and 99. First the "completed" status is set to true and after that the "result" is assigned. However in the get methods the completed status is checked and then the result returned, resulting in the potential race condition that the still unassigned result is returned.
