Peter Schuller commented on CASSANDRA-3797:
-------------------------------------------
Really? That's strange. I just re-tried again to double-check (ant clean and
everything) and the patch seems to make a difference here.
In the case of Class.forName() I cannot believe that is not supposed to be
guaranteed. Are you *sure* it's not working? I would have to assume static
initialization must by definition happen for Class.forName() to fullfil its
contract (even if I could possibly buy slightly more easily that the
staticallyInitialize() NOOP didn't, but even that seems like a stretch).
I am just building and {{./bin/cassandra -f}} and immediately attaching with
visualvm.

> While plugging in the metrics library for CASSANDRA-3671 I realized (because
> the metrics library was trying to add a shutdown hook on metric creation)
> that starting cassandra and simply shutting it down, causes StorageProxy to
> not be initialized until the drain shutdown hook.
> Effects:
> * StorageProxy mbean missing in visualvm/jconsole after initial startup
> (seriously, I thought I was going nuts ;))
> * And in general anything that makes assumptions about running early, or at
> least not during JVM shutdown, such as the metrics library, will be
> problematic
