             Summary: Bulk event processor capability
                 Key: RTGOV-418
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RTGOV-418
             Project: RTGov (Run Time Governance)
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Event Processor
            Reporter: Gary Brown
            Assignee: Gary Brown
             Fix For: 2.0.0.Final


Currently the EventProcessor implementations are invoked to process individual events that pass an optional predicate.

For some EventProcessor implementations, it may be more efficient to deal with a group of events at the same time.

There are two ways that this could be dealt with:

(a) maintain the single processing approach, and the implementation builds up the state locally - and potentially uses the txn commit as an indication to record the events - although means maintaining state against the txn/thread.

(b) extend the event processor API to enable a collection of events (that have passed the predicate) to be provided in one go - it would then return a set of those events that need to be retried.

Current preference is for (b), as it does not require any reliance on txn or maintaining state.
