[jbosscache-dev] JBCACHE-880

[Manik Surtani]

Hi Elias,

Have you discussed JBCACHE-880 on the forums yet?  I don't see a link  
to a forum thread on the task.

I'm not too excited by the implementation here, putting 'special'  
values in a node's hashmap is always ugly and although we do it with  
the UNITIALIZED marker, I'm not a fan of this.  We should discuss  
this a bit further on the forums, see if there is a better solution.

Also, I'd like to understand the use case a bit better as to why such  
a mechanism is useful in a 'generic' implementation (I can see this  
as a great custom policy, though)

Cheers,
