Flavio Junqueira commented on BOOKKEEPER-562:
---------------------------------------------

Nice that you've had a chance to take a cut at this issue, Sijie. I'm not the 
one who came up with this requirement, but my understanding of what they need 
is a bit different. 

Your change allows an app to check if the state of the ledger according to the 
handle is closed. In the way I understand the description here, the app might 
not have opened or created the ledger to obtain a handle and yet it needs to 
know if a given ledger is closed, perhaps using something like 
BookKeeper#isClosed(ledgerId) that queries the metastore. It also mentions 
listing existing ledgers along with its status (open or closed).

> We need to be able to differentiate between open and closed ledgers, because 
> we want to persist ledgers which are closed and wait for ledgers that are 
> open to close.
> There doesn't seem to be an easy way to get a list of closed / open ledgers 
> or to query bk to ask if a specific ledger is open or closed.
