> try {
> entryLogger.scanEntryLog(entryLogId, new
> CompactionScanner(entryLogMeta));
> // after moving entries to new entry log, remove this old one
> removeEntryLog(entryLogId);

> {code}
> currently compaction code has a bit problem: as the code described above, old
> entry log is removed after new entries are added to new entry log, but new
> entry log might not be flushed. if failures happened after removal but before
> flush, data would be lost.
> when I implemented compaction feature in BOOKKEEPER-160, I remembered that I
> took care of letting entry go back to normal addEntry flow to reflect journal
> and index. But seems that the addEntry doesn't go thru journal, just move
> entries between entry log files w/o any flush guarantee.
> there are two ideas for this solution:
> simple one is to let compaction going to normal addEntry flow (adding entry
> to ledger storage and putting it in journal). the other one is GC thread
> either wait for ledger storage to flush in sync thread in one flush interval
> or force a ledger storage flush before removing entry log files.
> BTW, it was hard to design a test case by simulating bookie abnormally shut
> down itself after entry log files are removed.
