I had a couple of questions. I noticed that when I create a reference (zk-ref) I need to provide an initial value. For each VM I do this for - it ends up clobbering the previous value. Is there anyway to create a reference without necessarily clobbering existing data? My second question is to do with derefs. The documentation says that Avout caches multiple derefs and that it will invalidate the cache when the ref is locally or remotely updated. My own testing seems to indicate that the deref still see the old values after a remote change is made. If I wrap the deref in a dosync!! however that seems to trigger the invalidation and I see the correct value. Am I missing something? Great work on this library. Distributed STM has a lot of potential. -- Glen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
