Re: zookeeper utils
Just to illustrate one of the primitives you're looking for: an AtomicInteger equivalent would be fairly easy to construct, with nearly identical semantics to the Java version. Let's say a given znode has four bytes of data that represent an integer value. Get operations or set operations are easy, as ZK will make sure that all operations are atomic, so they happen in a linearizable order. A get-and-set operation can be performed by reading the znode via getData, and performing a conditional update using the version number of the znode that was returned as part of the getData operation. ZooKeeper's setData operation takes an optional version number (set it to -1 to ignore it) which tells the operation to succeed only if the znode's version hasn't changed since. Other operations can use this procedure as a base. This is exactly how Java's getAndSet is implemented - neither implementation is wait-free, but they are still lock-free: some process will always make progress. Hope this helps - let me know if you'd like more detail on exactly how to build this.

Well, first off, I'm trying to get familiar with Zookeeper's capabilities, and I figured that'd be a good place to start. Aside from that, though, we're going to need something like AtomicInteger for an app I'm about to start working on, so I was looking to see if there was already some code out there that got me all or part of the way there.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Hi David,

zookeeper utils
Was reading through the zookeeper docs on the web - specifically the "recipes and solutions" page (as well as comments elsewhere inviting additional such contributions from the community) and was wondering: Is there a library of higher-level zookeeper utilities that people have contributed, beyond the barrier and queue examples provided in the docs? Thanks, DR
