This week's book giveaway is in the General Computing forum. We're giving away four copies of Arduino in Action and have Martin Evans, Joshua Noble, and Jordan Hochenbaum on-line! See this thread for details.
I have a situation where all users need (only read, no write) to have access to the same information.
My solution is to add the needed info to a bean and stuff it into the application scope, this way I don't need to stuff the bean into each request or session. However I also need to refresh this information at regular intervals. I'm worried that I may step on the object just when a user is trying to access this object, ie, it is not synchronized.
Is my initial solution correct for the situation and if so how would I take care of the synchronization issues.
Synchronization is a topic well-covered on the web and in other JavaRanch forums.

Thanks David. Thought as much when I submitted, but put it out here since I'm using struts and its a web app. With the application scope. So put it in the java in general section then ?
