             Summary: PathChildrenCache StartMode documentation improvement
                 Key: CURATOR-124
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CURATOR-124
             Project: Apache Curator
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Recipes
            Reporter: Patrick Peralta
            Priority: Minor


When using {{PathChildrenCache}}, the documented behavior for 
{{StartMode.NORMAL}} is as follows:

{panel}
cache will _not_ be primed. i.e. it will start empty and you will receive 
events for all nodes added, etc.
{panel}

However my observation is that the cache is primed. This was confirmed by 
Jordan in an email thread on the mailing list on June 23 2014:

{panel}
Yes, POST_INITIALIZED_EVENT is the same as NORMAL except you get the 
INITIALIZED event. You can see this in 
TestPathChildrenCache.testChildrenInitialized(). Please send a PR with doc 
updates if you think they can be improved.
{panel}

When I looked into {{TestPathChildrenCache.testChildrenInitialized()}}, it 
appears to be testing the {{POST_INITIALIZED_EVENT}} behavior. I will add a new 
test {{testChildrenInitializedNormal}} to assert the cache initialization 
behavior describe above for mode {{NORMAL}}. Furthermore I will modify the doc 
to indicate this behavior.

This issue will be updated with a link to the PR when it is ready.
