------------------------------------
OK, thanks.
It's certainly in my interests to have SEQUENCER in as good shape as possible - if you
think I can help, I'd be glad to do so. I'm an IRC novice I'm afraid; but
I'm sure I can figure it out...
Should I be worried by your commit moving SEQUENCER ("needs to be above flow control
protocols")? Per JGRP-1426, I want views to be sequenced too, so that part of my
stack goes, from bottom to top: SEQUENCER, GMS, UFC, MFC. Am I likely to hit trouble by
having SEQUENCER below the flow control protocols?
SEQUENCER leaks sequence numbers
--------------------------------
Key: JGRP-1461
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1461
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.0.9, 3.1
Reporter: David Hotham
Assignee: Bela Ban
Fix For: 3.0.10, 3.1
As noted in JGRP-1458, it looks as though SEQUENCER always thinks that sequence numbers
must start at zero. But a member who joins a group after some messages have already been
broadcast may never receive sequence number zero. So, I think, his SeqnoTable will grow
indefinitely.
Note that this one's mostly through code reading. I think I'm right; but I'm
happy to be told otherwise!
Pull request to follow shortly.
