Lazy property is initialized twice

As we all know lazy property is not thread safe.



my evaluation part is like this.



if someclass isInitialized {
return someclass instance
}
else{
initialize someclass
return someclass instance
}


The problem is



If thread 1 sees that someclass is not initialised it will then try to do so.



If thread 2 sees that someclass is not initialised before thread 1 gets to do so, then it too will try to initialise it too.



so it is initialized twice



can we overcome this with lazy property?
