[jbosscache-dev] Re: 1.4.0.SP2 WAS: Customer wants a patch with JBCACHE-776 + JBCACHE-777. Working on it today, could you confirm fixes for them?

[Manik Surtani]

This is what we have scheduled for 1.4.2.SP2:

Bug

     * [ JBCACHE-755 ] Potential bug when using (async) replication  
queue and region based marshalling
     * [ JBCACHE-760 ] TreeCacheListener in PojoCache gets nodeModify  
events for invalid objects
     * [ JBCACHE-765 ] implementation of equals() in collections is  
incorrect
     * [ JBCACHE-769 ] JDBCCacheLoader should not directly serialize  
a map passed to put
     * [ JBCACHE-776 ] EvictionPolicyProvider WARN message is noisy  
and misleading
     * [ JBCACHE-777 ] Creating a custom cache loader which delegates  
to a standard cache loader, can generate misleading WARN messages
     * [ JBCACHE-785 ] InvocationContext and suspended transactions

Task

     * [ JBCACHE-761 ] Make connecting the channel and state transfer  
an atomic part of startup

Patch

     * [ JBCACHE-766 ] Don't return unnecessary values from  
_replicate, avoiding need for marshalling
     * [ JBCACHE-767 ] Fail more silently when setting node versions


Of these:

* JBCACHE-785 and JBCACHE-761 are still open (but will be completed  
before making such a release)
* JBCACHE-766, JBCACHE-767, JBCACHE-776 and JBCACHE-777 are just  
"optimisations"

Do the rest, which are valid bug fixes, warrant a release yet?  What  
do people think?

In terms of timescales, I could have the release tagged and ready for  
QA by next week.

Cheers,
