-----------------------------------
Summary: GarbageCollector should fail fast if there is a problem
Key: JCR-3341
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3341
Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: jackrabbit-core
Affects Versions: 2.5
Reporter: Thomas Mueller
Priority: Minor
The GarbageCollector installs an ObservationListener to ensure moved nodes are
scanned as well.
If there is an exception in the ObservationListener, this exception is captured
(lastException), but only evaluated at the very end of the GC cycle, in
Listener.stop() / GarbageCollector.stopScan() which is called as part of
sweep(), before deleting unused items.
This is quite late. For a large repository, scanning might take a few hours.
If such an exception occurs, scanning should stop within a reasonable time
(fail fast), and the exception should be thrown there.
