[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JGRP-1407) UUID isn't serializable

[Stefano Ravera (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1407?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12655183#comment-12655183 ] 

Stefano Ravera commented on JGRP-1407:
--------------------------------------

Shouldn't it be better to make Address interface extend Externalizable (again)?
In this way backward compatibility with 2.x is preserved and "Please never use implementations of Address directly; Address should always be used as an opaque identifier of a cluster node!" warning present in jgroups documentation is followed.
Let me know if I should open a new issue for this or if this issue could be reopened.
Thanks

> UUID doesn't implement Serializable or Externalizable, therefore it cannot be used in MethodCall. The unit test that fails is MethodCallTest.testMarshalling2().
> SOLUTION: implement Externalizable (again)
