Let me elaborate on the above question: I'm using Eclipse and the Processing core to develop an application that processes data from IRC channels using PircBot. Whenever new data arrives, the PircBot class calls a method in my main PApplet class so I can parse that data into a custom RingBuffer. This buffer is read in the standard draw()-method of the PApplet but I don't know if that method (and - if i understand Java Threads correctly - the data accessed inside that method) is synchronized.
Otherwise I'd potentially read from and write to the buffer simultaneously which might cause unexpected behaviour or even a crash.
Do I need to manually synchronize some / all methods that access the buffer or does the PApplet class (maybe even the renderer) do that for me?
