Pre-Invocation flag PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ throws exception ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-2187 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-2187 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Core API Reporter: Anna Manukyan Assignee: Galder Zamarreño Labels: jdg6 Fix For: 5.2.0.Alpha3, 5.2.0.Final Hi, While writing tests for Infinispan Flag.PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ the following issue has been found. In documentation it is said: PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ Flags the invocation as a Cache.putForExternalRead(Object, Object) call, as opposed to a regular Map.put(Object, Object). And the documentation for Cache.putForExternalRead(Object, Object) says: void putForExternalRead(K key, V value) ................... Errors and exceptions are 'silent' - logged at a much lower level than normal, and this method does not throw exceptions The issue is the following: when trying to perform operation using PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ flag, the exception is thrown, it is not 'silent'. cache1.getAdvancedCache().withFlags(Flag.PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ).put(key, value); The test is the following: {code} public void testExceptionSuppression() throws Exception { Cache cache1 = cache(0, "replSync"); Cache cache2 = cache(1, "replSync"); Transport mockTransport = mock(Transport.class); RpcManagerImpl rpcManager = (RpcManagerImpl) TestingUtil.extractComponent(cache1, RpcManager.class); Transport originalTransport = TestingUtil.extractComponent(cache1, Transport.class); try { Address mockAddress1 = mock(Address.class); Address mockAddress2 = mock(Address.class); List<Address> memberList = new ArrayList<Address>(2); memberList.add(mockAddress1); memberList.add(mockAddress2); rpcManager.setTransport(mockTransport); when(mockTransport.getMembers()).thenReturn(memberList); when(mockTransport.getViewId()).thenReturn(originalTransport.getViewId()); when(mockTransport.invokeRemotely(anyAddresses(), (CacheRpcCommand) anyObject(), anyResponseMode(), anyLong(), anyBoolean(), (ResponseFilter) anyObject())) .thenThrow(new RuntimeException("Barf!")); try { cache1.put(key, value); fail("Should have barfed"); } catch (RuntimeException re) { } // clean up any indeterminate state left over try { cache1.remove(key); fail("Should have barfed"); } catch (RuntimeException re) { } assertNull("Should have cleaned up", cache1.get(key)); // should not barf cache1.putForExternalRead(key, value); /** ------------------- Testing the same feature with Flag.PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ **/ try { cache1.remove(key); fail("Should have barfed"); } catch (RuntimeException re) { } cache1.getAdvancedCache().withFlags(Flag.PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ).put(key, value); } finally { if (rpcManager != null) rpcManager.setTransport(originalTransport); } } {code} Best regards, Anna.
