I am getting very strange results when calling node.getChild() in different ways. For instance, I've populated a local cache (using the JDBC cache loader) with the following node: /content/timestamp This node has a value in its hashmap named "timestamp" that contains a Long. The tricky thing is that I get different values for this node based on how I retrieve it (see below). root.getChild("/content/timestamp") - returns null root.getChild("content/timestamp") - returns the time stored in the backing database root.getChild(Fqn.fromString("content/timestamp")) - returns the time stored in the in-memory cache root.getChild(Fqn.fromString("/content/timestamp")) - returns null Any thoughts on why this node varies based on how I retrieve it?
