Re: [jbosscache-dev] CacheLoader preload with region based marshalling

The regions are created/registered after start(); i.e. after the

configuration mistake that's been in AS 5 all along; just wasn't

involved.)
Perhaps w/ region-based marshalling I shouln't use <preload>/</
preload>. A nice fix to http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/
JBCACHE-1009 would include logic to defer the preload until regions
are activated.
Yes, agreed. And this is not necessarily overly complex to do either:
When preloading stuff from cache loader:
1) Loop through all Fqns to be preloaded.
2) For each Fqn being preloaded, if any state is regionalised (i.e., a
non-null region) check if the region is activated. If so, proceed as
normal, if not skip.
When a region is actvated:
1) Check if the region is a sub-region of any "preload" Fqns specified
in your cache loader cfg.
2) If so, attempt to preload that Fqn, but only for regions that match
the one being activated. Skip others.
I wonder if it is worth fixing JBCACHE-1009 in 2.2.0. It would
warrant another CR in 2.2.0 though. Thoughts? Votes on this?
TBH, I don't see why I want <preload>/</preload> at
all for this
usage.
Yes - isn't lazy loading a virtue here anyway? :-)
And re: 2.1.1.GA, since JBCACHE-1358 is an obvious bug in JBC, I may
port this fix to 2.1.X which will cause future 2.1.X releases to break
in the same way.
