Thread safety of javascript based web script

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Created the following web script to assign a unique identifier through aspects for each uploaded document :

docID = parseInt(space.properties["my:uniId"]);
NewDocID = docID + 1;
space.properties["my:uniId"] = NewDocID;
space.save();
document.properties["my:uniId"] = NewDocID;
document.save();

The above web script is assigned to space as a rule to apply for each upload.

Is the above web script is thread safe(If multiple users try to upload documents simultaneously using Alfresco Web Service API or through Alfresco Explorer, the above unique identifier will take care of concurrency?)

There's a chance it might work.    However I suggest you test and see what happens.    Sequence generation probably needs another approach since its deceptively tricky.
