Hello I am trying to use the org.jboss.cache.lock.* package in order to obtain (replicated) cache wide Object Locking. Using the IdentityLock class I have managed to lock (write locks) objects (annotated pojos) on a single node. For some reason the lock does not seem to prevent other nodes in the cluster , from obtaining locks to the same object. Is it because I am using the DummyTransactionManager preconfigured in the release's example XMLs I am using 1.4GA version. The ? tx.start pojo1.setField1(); pojo2.setField2() ; tx.commit() ? Way of doing things is not going to workout for me. I Really need cluster wide directlocks. Many Thanks Shal.
