    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Application deployment using loose configuration scenarios,
    for example, Rational Application Developer,
    may fail in rare instances with concurrent modification
    exceptions. This is due to a lack of synchronization in the
    loose configuration code.
    The exception will look similar to the following:
    java.util.ConcurrentModificationException

    org.eclipse.emf.common.util.BasicEList$EIterator.checkModCount(B
    asicEList.java:1327)

    org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.commonarchivecore.looseconfig.internal.Loos

    4)
    

Problem conclusion

  • Necessary synchronization was added to the loose configuration
    code.
    
    APAR PM77910 is currently targeted for inclusion in
    Service Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.29 of WebSphere
    Application Server.
