[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-506) Infinispan should have a notion of comparable dataversion for handling external db updates

[Galder Zamarreño (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-506?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12791668#comment-12791668 ] 

Galder Zamarreño commented on ISPN-506:
---------------------------------------

Since Infinispan 5.3 you can now provide version information externally via a Metadata object. However, this information does not yet survive deletes. There might be more logic needed to be implemented, because the Metadata is just stored alongside the value. This Metadata does not participate in equals comparisons (i.e. replace passing new and old values), and we have not implemented logic to avoid older metadata to replace newer metadata, or use that metadata to figure out if the put is stale or not.

We should sync up when we're both in Neuchatel and I can give you an update and get some clarification on what we're missing from ISPN perspective taking in account what I said above.
