Brian Stansberry commented on JBCLUSTER-139:
--------------------------------------------

This is necessary for the Infinispan conversion, as the session ownership locking code needs it (the locking will not be HAPartition based; will be built on JGroups' new shared RpcDispatcher.

Also, this allows the RPC API to be cleaned up by converting return types from ArrayList to List<?>.  HAPartition can override the superinterface methods to still return ArrayList, making it compatible with existing users. Internal stuff can use the superinterface API.

> Abstraction on top of JGroups RpcDispatcher.
> Start with HAPartition as a base, but minus DRM and DS.  Consider what Messaging has done as well as JBCACHE-311.
> Consider separating the group membership API from the RPC API. RPC API would probably be a subinterface of the group membership one, as group RPC implies being aware of who the group is.
> This is lower priority, as, except for AS, its an internal implementation detail that can be changed.  But, AS exposes HAPartition as an API for end-user code.
