[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JGRP-1297) Make generation of addresses pluggable

Make generation of addresses pluggable -------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-1297 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1297 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 2.12 Sometimes it might be desirable to provide custom addresses (classes implementing org.jgroups.Address). One example is an address which contains additional data, e.g. an attribute that's shipped around with the address. SOLUTION: JChannel provides a setAddressGenerator(AddressGenerator). AddressGenerator has a method generateAddress(), which returns an Address. One could create a subclass of UUID, for instance, and add a string to it, and then create an instance of this subclass in generateAddress().
