What is a 'thread-confined' clone?












2















Just what the title states; the term appeared in 'Java Concurrency in Practice'.



I assume it means that a clone may only be created within the thread that holds the lock. Is this assumption correct?

          A thread-confined object is one that can only ever be seen by the thread that created it.



          So a thread-confined clone of an object is a clone that can only ever be seen by the thread that created it (the clone).

            "Since the clone is thread-confined, no other thread can modify it during iteration, eliminating the possibility of ConcurrentModificationException. (The collection still must be locked during the clone operation itself)"
