Thank you Adam!

I had a first look at you code and your implementation will
be certainly useful.

Cheers!

Re: Problems with ZooKeeper apache wiki.

2010-05-11 Thread Mahadev Konar
Thanks Paul!

Does this mean folks will not be able to upload and download presentations
on wiki from now on?

If so, what is the alternative for us to upload attachments (such as
presentations)? 

Thanks

Re: New ZooKeeper client library "Cages"

2010-05-11 Thread Patrick Hunt
Hi Dominic, this looks really interesting thanks for open sourcing it. I 
really like the idea of providing higher level concepts. I only just 
looked at the code, it wasn't clear on first pass what happens if you 
multilock on 3 paths, the first 2 are success, but the third fails. How 
are the locks cleared? How about the case where the client loses 
connectivity to the cluster, what happens in this case (both if partial 
locks are acquired, and the case where all the locks were acquired (for 
example how does the caller know if the locks are still held or released 
due to client partitioned from the cluster, etc...)).


I'll try d/l the code and looking at it more, I see some javadoc in 
there as well so that's great.


Regards,

Patrick

Hi Dominic,
  Good to see this. I like the name "cages" :).


You might want to post to the list what cages is useful for. I think quite a
few folks would be interested in something like this. Are you guys currently
using it with cassandra?

Thanks

ZookeeperPresentations Wiki

Hi,

I am trying to download some presentation slides from the
ZookeeperPresentations wiki (
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/ZooKeeperPresentations) but I am
facing a weird problem. On clicking on a link for a presentation, I am
getting the error message "You are not allowed to do AttachFile on this
page. Login and try again." I tried creating an account, and even after
that, I get the same error message, except the login suggestion. All
attachment links have an action=AttachFile URL, (e.g.
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/ZooKeeper/ZooKeeperPresentations?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=zookeeper_hbase.pptxfor
the zookeeper_hbase.pptx file). My intent is to just download the
files.
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong. Sorry for my ignorance,
but I honestly tried out all obvious means to figure out. :(

Best Regards
Sudipto
