Bela Ban commented on JGRP-338:
-------------------------------
This was implemented on the RpcDispatcher level, as an additional parameter
(use_anycasting) to the callRemoteMethods() methods. Otherwise, we would have had to
change a lot of code in the protocols, checking for null or unicast destination of a
message.
Anycast

Key: JGRP-338
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-338
Project: JGroups
Issue Type: Feature Request
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Bela Ban
Assigned To: Bela Ban
Fix For: 2.5
Send a message to N target members, where N is less than the group size (multicast) and
more than 1 (unicast). This will allow for RpcDispatcher.callRemoteMethods() to provide a
list of target members, and each transport decides individually whether to use multicast
of multiple unicasts.
