    *                      ConcurrentModificationException when    *

    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    You receive the ConcurrentModificationException because the
    input HashMap was being modified. Entries were being added
    with a new key and removed with the original key while the
    TWService.execute() API was iterating through its key set.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available that ensures the TWService.execute(Map
    inputParams) API copies all the objects of the input HashMap,
    including the objects that the input parameter refers to,
    which ensures that executing the API is isolated from changes
    that the application might be making to the objects that were
    passed into the API. Then the fix iterates through the
    HashMap, which allows the caller to modify the input HashMap
    without affecting the execution of the API.
