Robert Munteanu commented on JCR-3745:
--------------------------------------
{quote}should the extended functionality go into
ObservationManager.addEventListener() or only be available in
JackrabbitObservationManager.addEventListener() once JCR 2.1 is out?{quote}
IMO it should, since we can deprecate the JackrabbitObservationManager at that
time and evolve only by extending the JackrabbitEventListener, potentially
pushing changes into future versions of the JCR API easily.
It's also what I would expect as an API consumer.
> Add JackrabbitObservationManager with additional methods for registering

> I'd like to add an additional method for adding event listeners to the
> Jackrabbit API:
> void addEventListener(EventListener listener, int eventTypes, String[]
> absPaths, boolean isDeep, String[] uuid, String[] nodeTypeName, boolean
> noLocal, boolean noExternal) throws RepositoryException;
> Compared to the JCR method of the same name, this method takes an array of
> absPath and additional boolean argument:
> Only events whose associated parent node is at one of the paths in
> <code>absPaths</code> (or within its subgraph, if <code>isDeep</code> is
> <code>true</code>) will be received.
> and
> Additionally, if <code>noExternal</code> is <code>true</code>, then events
> from external cluster nodes are ignored. Otherwise, they are not ignored.
