That's obviously not the case, but if you name it as
@ConsistenHashChangeListene that's what I would think.
good point :-)
ConsistentHashMembershipChange perhaps?
Wouldn't it be better to change the exact timing of the viewchange
event? I don't see why Infinispan users might be more interested in
knowing about the topology details according to the transport than
what they are about the actual Infinispan hashing topology - I would
expect that when I receive which notification the new view is already
installed and ready to go; actually I thought that was the case since
ever.
What would be the use cases to get the notification *before* the new
hash is installed?
@ViewChanged listener is a CacheManager listener, so it's
independent of the caches in that are in use. It is possible for the CacheManager to wait
for all its distributed caches to install the view first, and only then dispatch the
@ViewChange event,
Not sure that's a good idea in the general case, though.
