Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1613:
--------------------------------
The difference to a MuxRpc/MessageDispatcher is that a MuxMessageDispatcher allows many
applications to use the *same* stack configuration, whereas FORK would allow different
applications to use different stack configurations. With a MuxMessageDispatcher, one could
for example not add a new protocol such as CENTRAL_LOCK or COUNTER to the stack, whereas
this is possible with FORK.
FORK: cactus stacks

Key: JGRP-1613
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1613
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Feature Request
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assignee: Bela Ban
Fix For: 3.4

Introduce cactus stacks where we can have multiple, different, stacks grafted onto the
same base stack.
The problem today is that different applications need different functionality (protocol
stack configs) in the AS. For example, we have the default stack used by AS. Then,
Hibernate Search wants to use distributed locking (CENTRAL_LOCK) and counting (COUNTER).
The total order stack wants to use TOA/SEQUENCER and so on.
Cactus stacks add the ability to:
* Provide custom (partial) stacks that are grafted onto a base stack
* Add/remove stacks at runtime
See the attached picture for details.
