Hello,
I'm a new Ignite user, and with just a little bit of exposure, I'm quite
impressed with it -- it did not take me long to get a single standalone
remote node up and running and start using it as a durable memory key-value
store.
I created a connection pool for ClientCache in Java, using Apache Commons
Pool 2. So far it's working well, but I had to fudge overriding the
commons-pool2 "validateObject()" method, which is a method to test that
your pooled object is still alive and well: I used
clientCache.getName().equals("MY_CACHE") as a test, but I have no idea if
this indicates whether the connection to my remote cache is active or not.
In some future release, could you add a "isConnected()" method or similar
to ClientCache or IgniteClient (if it makes more sense there), for ease of
testing connections and determining when to discard bad client objects?
thanks,
-- Scott
