public interface SingleThreadModel
If a servlet implements this interface, you are guaranteed that no two
threads will execute concurrently in the servlet's service
method. The servlet container can make this guarantee by synchronizing access
to a single instance of the servlet, or by maintaining a pool of servlet
instances and dispatching each new request to a free servlet.
Note that SingleThreadModel does not solve all thread safety issues. For example, session attributes and static variables can still be accessed by multiple requests on multiple threads at the same time, even when SingleThreadModel servlets are used. It is recommended that a developer take other means to resolve those issues instead of implementing this interface, such as avoiding the usage of an instance variable or synchronizing the block of the code accessing those resources. This interface is deprecated in Servlet API version 2.4.
