Hi Taylor, Really glad to see that you'd like to work on the recipes. As per your questions, comments are in lined:
> - it should implement the java.util.concurrent interfaces so that the > implementation may be used by anyone already familiar with the > java.util.concurrent.* interfaces The problem with implementing concurrent interfaces is that we do not have a nice way to propagating errors back to the application in case of errors. It is very much possible that if you have acquired a lock using lock(), you might lose it because of some session expiry or network connection loss which corresponds to you losing the ownership of the lock. I am not sure how we could get arnd this. Though throwing RuntimeExceptions for lock()/unlock() might solve part of the problem but not all of it. > - it should be located in a jar that is easily accessible in a standard > location but I don't see a standard way of writing and making available > value-add libraries on top of ZooKeeper primitives - is there one? I am not sure what you mean by that? Do you want to publish the jar onto maven? > - there are some minor issues with safe publication of mutable values in the > code provided that should be fixed > Please go ahead and file a jira. Patches are always wecome! :) > May someone please inform me on the best way to proceed? The best way would be to open a jira and start a discussion on it. You can put forward your proposal on the jira and then ask for feedback. > > Thanks! > > Taylor Thanks mahadev
