Hi,
This is the document describing the incremental optimistic locking Dan and myself
discussed last week:
http://community.jboss.org/wiki/IncrementalOptimisticLocking
Unless I'm missing something, this together with lock reordering[1] cover 100% of the
possible deadlock situations in the optimistic locking scheme[2] - which is pretty
awesome!
Cheers,
Mircea
