[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBCACHE-1360) ClusteredCacheLoader.getChildrenNames() returns a null if it cannot connect to the cluster

ClusteredCacheLoader.getChildrenNames() returns a null if it cannot connect to the cluster ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBCACHE-1360 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCACHE-1360 Project: JBoss Cache Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Cache loaders Affects Versions: 2.1.1.GA Reporter: Manik Surtani Assigned To: Manik Surtani Fix For: 2.2.0.GA This is a pretty nasty problem, since according to the CacheLoader interface contract, getChildrenNames() returning null is a VALID response meaning that there are no children for the node in question, causing the CacheLoaderInterceptor to remove all children on the node. The CCL should actually throw an exception of it cannot connect to the cluster - or if the cluster is empty - and hence cannot know the result of getChildrenNames(). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
