Concurrent access to static methods

Question

I have a static method with the following signature:

public static List processRequest(RequestObject req){
  // process the request obje         


        

Answer 1

Answering exactly your question:

1. Method will be executed concurrently (multiple times in the same time if you have several threads).
2. Requests will be handled concurrently.

You need to add the synchronized modifier if you are working with objects that require concurrent access.
