In order to make new implementation 'backward' compatible (i.e. to work on existing data managed by JDBCacheLoader) I need root to be persisted - implementation heavily relies on that.
My thought is to check at startup whether it exists, and create it. Any cons/alternatives?

Cheers,

Hi,

loader.put(any_fqn);
assertTrue(loader.exists(Fqn.ROOT)); //fails

The problem is that root element is not persisted.
