Description

RMIAsynchronousCacheReplicator and RMISynchronousCacheReplicator implement CacheEventListener as a CacheReplicator. They use RMICachePeer to handle the notifications. The problem is that when RMICachePeer receives a notification to put or remove an Element it intentionally does not call the local CacheEventListeners. This is to prevent circular notifications to CacheReplicators. But, it does not allow a CacheEventListener to not be a CacheReplicator. With this RMI implementation all CacheEventListeners whether they extend RMISynchronousCacheReplicator or are an additional configured CacheEventListener receive notifications only when a cache change is made directly to the Cache. They do not receive notifications from a CachePeer. This essentially makes all CacheEventListeners CacheReplicators.

A way to correct this is to separate the concerns of Cache replication from Cache event listening. This could be be done by Cache having a list of CacheReplicatorFactorys separate from a list of CacheEventListenerFactorys. CacheReplicators are not notified of Cache changes from remote peers.
CacheEventListeners are notified of Cache changes regardless of where they were initiated. Sourceforge Ticket ID: 1480027 - Opened By: amcnutt - 1 May 2006 21:14 UTC
