[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JGRP-900) Address: remove isMulticastAddress()

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

     [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-900?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Bela Ban updated JGRP-900:
--------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 3.0
                       (was: 2.8)


Potentially breaks existing code using Address. 

Currently, UUIDs will always return false for isMulticastAddress(). I have not detected a single case where a non-null address is actually a multicast address !

> With logical addresses, we don't need this anymore:
> Address dest=msg.getDest();
> boolean mcast=dest == null || dest.isMulticastAddress();
> should be changed to
> boolean mcast=msg.isMulticastMessage(); // or isGroupMessage() ?
