Symptoms

Assume that you develop an application by using Microsoft Lync Server 2013 Persistent Chat SDK. The application creates multiple endpoints, and users on the endpoints use the application to perform actions in multiple threads. For example, users on the endpoints join a chat room, send a message, and then leave a chat room. In this situation, the application throws the following unhandled exception and then crashes:
Unhandled System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException
at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.get_Item(TKey key)
at Microsoft.Rtc.Collaboration.PersistentChat.Internal.ChatRoomCache.get_Item(Uri uri)
at Microsoft.Rtc.Collaboration.PersistentChat.PersistentChatEndpoint.get_Item(Uri uri)
at Microsoft.Rtc.Collaboration.PersistentChat.Internal.MessageHandler.HandlePartNotify(Object messageIn)

Cause

This issue is caused by a timing issue that occurs between two threads. When one thread deletes an item in a dictionary, and then another thread tries to access the item in the dictionary, the application throws an unhandled KeyNotFoundException exception. Then, the application crashes.
