             Summary: Bug in PollThread, mixing up expected nad actual when alerting listeners
                 Key: JBIDE-12398
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12398
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JBossAS/Servers
    Affects Versions: 3.4.0.M1
            Reporter: Rob Stryker
            Assignee: Rob Stryker
             Fix For: 3.4.0.M1


There is currently only one implementer of the interface which is being misued, and that specific instance is not affected by the bug. This is a bug only discoverable via unit test. There is no behaviour change at all for it. 

The interface IPollResultListener has two methods:

	public void stateAsserted(boolean expectedState, boolean currentState);
	public void stateNotAsserted(boolean expectedState, boolean currentState);	

The PollThread class is misusing these methods, and instead calling with the parameters reversed. In the case of stateAsserted(bool, bool), this is not able to be noticed. In this case, it is saying the transition worked, so both values will be the same no matter what. Either expected is up or down, and, necessarily, the actual value will be the same as expected.

In the case of stateNotAsserted, however, the ordering definitely matters. Either the server is up when it should be down, or it is down when it should be up. This difference matters.
