Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-8568:
-------------------------------------
Improvements to Byteman testing can be a follow up ticket, which I'll get to in
a week or two. It's ready for review as stands, although I would prefer
CASSANDRA-8984 take priority.
> Impose new API on data tracker modifications that makes correct usage obvious
> and imposes safety

>
> DataTracker has become a bit of a quagmire, and not at all obvious to
> interface with, with many subtly different modifiers. I suspect it is still
> subtly broken, especially around error recovery.
> I propose piggy-backing on CASSANDRA-7705 to offer RAII (and GC-enforced, for
> those situations where a try/finally block isn't possible) objects that have
> transactional behaviour, and with few simple declarative methods that can be
> composed simply to provide all of the functionality we currently need.
> See CASSANDRA-8399 for context
