Protocol: add down(Message) and up(Message) ------------------------------------------- Key: JGRP-2067 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-2067 Project: JGroups Issue Type: Feature Request Reporter: Bela Ban Assignee: Bela Ban Fix For: 4.0 Oftentime we have code like this, e.g. in a protocol: {code:java} void send(Message msg) { ... down_prot.down(new Event(Event.MSG, msg)); } {code} Most protocols deal mainly with {{Message}} types, so adding {{down(Message msg)}} and {{up(Message msg)}} would simplify the code above to: {code:java} void send(Message msg) { ... down_prot.down(msg); } {code} This would also lead to a (massive) reduction of {{Event}} class creations. Downside: this requires a lot of code changes (mainly in protocols)!
