Julian Reschke updated JCR-2859:
--------------------------------
Attachment: JCR-2859.diff
Updated proposed patch, incl. a test case.
Note this also changes quite a few existing tests that assume that getLockToken
has to return null, when it doesn't need to according to the spec.
What's left to do is to incorporate Felix' proposal to allow this based on the
membership in a "lock breaker" group.
> Make open scoped locks recoverable
> ----------------------------------

> Key: JCR-2859
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2859
> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: locks
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler

>
> The lock tokens for open scoped locks are currently tied to the session which
> created the lock. If the session dies (for whatever reason) there is no way
> to recover the lock and unlock the node.
> There is a theoretical way of adding the lock token to another session, but
> in most cases the lock token is not available.
> Fortunately, the spec allows to relax this behaviour and I think it would
> make sense to allow all sessions from the same user to unlock the node - this
> is still in compliance with the spec but would make unlocked locked nodes
> possible in a programmatic way.
