Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-7276:
----------------------------------------
Sorry mate, with the 3.0 release I prioritized other tasks and just now had
time to have a closer look on this.
I'm not happy with manually having to fetch the MDC context Map on each
runnable and cleaning afterwards, since it's error prone and requires a great
deal of developer cooperation. We would need to add transparent MDC-awareness
to our custom executors (DebuggableThreadPoolExecutor and
AbstractTracingAwareExecutorService), similar to what was done to tracing
awareness on CASSANDRA-1123, and this would increase considerably the
complexity of this ticket, given how critical those components are.
Another problem with using finally clauses to limit the scope of the MDC
variables is that in the case of an exception (such as the one in the
description of this ticket), the finally clause would clear the context map
before the exception is handled by an outer handler, so the ks/cf information
would not show up in the exception handling log. So we would need to let the
MDC context propagate and clear only when the exception is catched by an outer
handler, what would again require developer cooperation to work right.
Given these problems, I wonder if it's worth the effort of introducing MDC
support and require developers to follow certain constraints to use it, or if
we should just stick to manually adding KS/CF information to log statements and
exception traces on an as-needed basis. What do you think [~thobbs],
[~aweisberg] ?
