THREADSAFE Java Servlet

Question

I need to know if there are any problems with the code below, as far as the stream goes. It always seemed to me that as long as class level variables are not used, threads are not a problem.

public class UploadReferralImage extends HttpServlet
{
    String CLASS_NAME = "UploadReferralImage";

public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
   // Not handling Get, service must be invoked via Post.
}

public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
{
    String METHOD_NAME = "doPost";
    LogHelper.debug(PACKAGE_NAME, CLASS_NAME, METHOD_NAME, "Made it to the servlet");
    String reply = upload(request);
    response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml");
    response.getWriter().write(reply);
    response.getWriter().flush();
    response.getWriter().close();
}

public String upload(HttpServletRequest request)
{

    String METHOD_NAME = "upload";
    LogHelper.debug(PACKAGE_NAME, CLASS_NAME, METHOD_NAME, "Inside upload");
    String replyMsg = "Unable to call ImageUpload";

    try
    {
        ObjectInputStream inputFromApplet = new ObjectInputStream(request.getInputStream());
        FileBean fBean = (FileBean) inputFromApplet.readObject();

        inputFromApplet.close();
        LogHelper.debug(PACKAGE_NAME, CLASS_NAME, METHOD_NAME, fBean.getFileName());

        replyMsg = doImageUpload(fBean);

        } 
        catch (IOException e)
    {   
        e.printStackTrace();
            replyMsg = "Exception :" + e.toString();

    } 
        catch (ClassNotFoundException e)
    {
        e.printStackTrace();
            replyMsg = "Exception :" + e.toString();
    }

    return replyMsg;
}

private String doImageUpload(FileBean fBean)
{
       //Save the file and return the response
       SaveCaseClientAgent saveCaseClientAgent = new SaveCaseClientAgent();
       saveCaseClientAgent.save(fBean);
}

Answer 1

You're right.

As long as you avoid using class level variables, yours Servletwill be thread safe.

To be safe, you can make your class String finalat the class level:

final String CLASS_NAME = "UploadReferralImage";
