[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JGRP-420) Convert Event.FIND_INITIAL_MBRS to use concurrent stack

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JGRP-420?page=all ]

Bela Ban resolved JGRP-420.
---------------------------

    Resolution: Done

- We now block in down(FIND_INITIAL_MBRS), and don't spawn threads to handle the event
- The sender (used to be: PingSender) still runs as a task in the Timer. This is fine

> Convert Event.FIND_INITIAL_MBRS to use concurrent stack

> Protocols above PING request initial membership by passing Event.FIND_INITIAL_MBRS down the stack. Prior to concurrent stack this event had to be processed asynchronously since there were deadlock issues - hence the need for PingWaiter. Now, with the concurrent stack, we might possibly eliminate the need for PingWaiter altogether and convert Event.FIND_INITIAL_MBRS to return initial membership as a result.
