Hot Rod server sets -1 for lifespan or maxIdle as default --------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-5670 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-5670 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Remote Protocols Reporter: William Burns Assignee: William Burns Fix For: 8.0.0.CR1, 7.2.5.Final The hotrod server currently keeps the default lifespan and maxIdle in the CacheDecodeContext. This works fine however a metadata is generated ignoring that if -1 is passed. Instead the put(K, V, Metadata) merges the default metadata into the one generated, which won't have a lifespan or maxIdle set since it was -1. In this case the merge method will take the default value instead. We should explicitly set the metadata to -1 before calling put(K, V, Metadata)
