Flavio Junqueira commented on ZOOKEEPER-2121:
---------------------------------------------
Thanks for reporting this issue, Joe. Do you want to try to create a patch for
this?
> Documentation of create method is unclear, incorrect, or both
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ZOOKEEPER-2121
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2121
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 3.4.6
> Reporter: Joe Gamache
>
> If you go to the create method documentation here:
> http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.4.6/api/index.html
> Then you see:
> {code}
> public String create(String path,
> byte[] data,
> List<ACL> acl,
> CreateMode createMode)
> throws KeeperException,
> InterruptedException
> Create a node with the given path. The node data will be the given data, and
> node acl will be the given acl.
> The flags argument specifies whether the created node will be ephemeral or
> not.
> An ephemeral node will be removed by the ZooKeeper automatically when the
> session associated with the creation of the node expires.
> The flags argument can also specify to create a sequential node. The actual
> path name of a sequential node will be the given path plus a suffix "i" where
> i is the current sequential number of the node. The sequence number is always
> fixed length of 10 digits, 0 padded. Once such a node is created, the
> sequential number will be incremented by one.
> {code}
> While there are 'path', 'data', 'acl', and 'createMode' arguments, there is
> no "flags argument". This documentation needs to be corrected to be clear,
> unambiguous, and perhaps provide and example.
