           Summary: [PATCH] Same logicsheet applied twice due to race
                    condition during startup
           Product: Cocoon 2
           Version: Current SVN 2.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: blocks
        AssignedTo: dev@cocoon.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Alfred.Nathaniel@swx.com


In a.o.c.components.language.markup.AbstractMarkupLanguage.addLogicsheetToList 
there is a race condition between fetching and storing a logicsheet in the 
cache.  Two threads may find the cache empty and each create a new Logicsheet 
for the same input source.  The race condition itself is benign.  It only 
wastes a few CPU cycles during startup.
 
However, addLogicsheetToList can be called several times for the same 
logicsheetLocation, leading to duplicate entries in logicSheetList.  These 
duplicates are supposed to be removed in addLogicsheetToGenerator:

  if(newLogicSheetList.indexOf(logicsheet) == -1)

Since Logicsheet.equals() is not implemented, currently this check only removes 
identical Logicsheet objects.  The race condition, however, can lead to non-
identical duplicates for the same logicsheet.  Depending on the logicsheet, 
this can lead to spurious XSP compilation errors (duplicate definitions of Java 
identifiers) or, worse, unexpected runtime behaviour. 

PATCH
=====
Implement a.o.c.components.language.markup.Logicsheet.equals and 
Logicsheet.hashCode, based on systemId:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+    /**
+     * Return true if other logicsheet has the same system id.
+     */
+    public boolean equals(Object other)
+    {
+       if (other == this)
+           return true;
+       if (other == null)
+           return false;
+       if (!(other instanceof Logicsheet))
+           return false;
+       Logicsheet that = (Logicsheet)other;
+       return this.systemId.equals(that.systemId);
+    }
+
+    /**
+     * Return hash code value for logicsheet.
+     */
+    public int hashCode()
+    {
+       return this.systemId.hashCode();
+    }
+
     public String getSystemId()
     {
         return this.systemId;
