splitting process

[jglan]

according to 4.3.2. from the manual different paths of execution can be defined by a fork. Here the question arose whether these paths are really running in parallel. The assertion is (by a colleague) that they can't be run in parallel (since he found no threading statements in the sources) and that the 2 execution paths are run one after the other.
Can somebody comment on this ?

If you search the forum with the words 'fork parallel thread' you'll find a nice long topic, describing this all.

Although i'm not always inclined to provide links, I'll do it this time: http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=72327
