Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-839:
-----------------------------------------
i agree with patrick. it doesn't have the atomicity behavior of other methods
and should be in a helper class.
> deleteRecursive does not belong to the other methods

> Key: ZOOKEEPER-839
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-839
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: java client
> Affects Versions: 3.3.1
> Reporter: Patrick Datko
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 3.4.0
>
>
> DeleteRecursive has been committed to trunk already as a method to the
> zookeeper class. So in the API it has the same level as the atomic operations
> create, delete, getData, setData, etc. The user must get the false
> impression,
> that deleteRecursive is also an atomic operation.
> It would be better to have deleteRecursive in some helper class but not that
> deep in zookeeper's core code. Maybe I'd like to have another policy on how
> to
> react if deleteRecursive fails in the middle of its work?
