Agreed that this is hacky, but either option is an implementation detail that can be changed. The hack should be simple and allows us to avoid adding a behavior change vs 1.x in 2.0. We can then look at non-hacky approaches at greater leisure. If we don't restore the 1.x behavior in 2.0, we really shouldn't restore it at all. Here's the hack impl. I haven't tried this; only quality guarantee I can give is that Eclipse doesn't give me any compile error warnings: | Index: RegionManager.java | =================================================================== | RCS file: /cvsroot/jboss/JBossCache/src/org/jboss/cache/RegionManager.java,v | retrieving revision 1.38 | diff -u -r1.38 RegionManager.java | --- RegionManager.java 28 Jun 2007 16:53:35 -0000 1.38 | +++ RegionManager.java 26 Jul 2007 16:08:42 -0000 | @@ -139,6 +139,8 @@ | { | Fqn fqnToUse = fqn; | if (DEFAULT_REGION.equals(fqnToUse)) fqnToUse = Fqn.ROOT; | + | + Region firstFound = null; | // first see if a region for this specific Fqn exists | if (regionsRegistry.containsKey(fqnToUse)) | { | @@ -152,6 +154,12 @@ | { | return r; | } | + | + if (type == Region.Type.MARSHALLING) | + { | + firstFound = r; | + } | + | } | | // if not, attempt to create one ... | @@ -195,11 +203,16 @@ | { | nextBestThing = r; | } | + | + if (type == Region.Type.MARSHALLING && firstFound == null) | + { | + firstFound = r; | + } | } | if (nextFqn.isRoot()) break; | } | | - return nextBestThing; | + return (nextBestThing == null ? firstFound : nextBestThing); | } | | /** View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4067901#...
