Answer / venkat

by default every servlet is not Thread safe.

if we want to make Thread safe use these statements

1) use SingleThreadModel interface . but this interface is
deprecated in servlet 2.5 specification

2) use synchronized methods and blocks

use synchronized method
=======================


public synchronized void service(ServletRequest
request,ServletResponse response) throws
ServletException,IOException
{
.........
.......
}

use synchronized block
========================


public void service(ServletRequest request,ServletResponse
response) throws ServletException,IOException
{
synchronized(this)
{
.........
.......
}
}

Is Servlet Class Thread safe?????? How to make servlet Thread safe ???..

Answer / santhosh kandula


Yes, Servlet is thread safe, because the process of
servlet is request and response. whenever the request comes
then the server can respond. suppose at a time there more
request are came to the server in that which request is the
server can respond, in that time threads will be created
and based on priority of the thread response will be given
for the request.
So, servlets are thread safe.By using thread
properties we make the servlet Thread safe.
