Hello All, I was looking at the documentation and could not get a clear distinction of behaviours for setup() and activate() during scenarios when an operator is passivated ( ex: application shutdown, repartition use cases ) and being brought back to life again. Could someone from the community advise me on the following questions ?
1. Is setup() called in these scenarios (serialize/deserialize cycles) as well ? 2. I am assuming activate() is called in these scenarios ? - The javadoc for activation states that the activate() can be called multiple times ( without explicitly stating why ) and my assumption is that it is because of these scenarios. 3. If setup() is only called once during the lifetime of an operator , is it fair to assume that activate() is the best place to resolve all of the transient fields of an operator ? Regards, Ananth
