After a second thought, I think the warning should be printed anyways when
CLOCK versioning mode is used because it does not guarantee happens-before
relationship when cache operations are invoked on different nodes (see an
example in pseudo-code below). Essentially, when cache operations are
invoked on different nodes within a time span smaller or equal than time
sync error, they are considered to be run concurrently.
IgniteCache cache = ignite.cache("name");
cache.put(1, 1);
// Select a random remote node.
ClusterGroup grp = ignite.cluster().forRemotes().forRandom();
ignite.compute(grp).call(new Callable() {
public Object call() throws Exception {
cache.put(1, 2); // This does not guarantee to succeed in CLOCK
mode.
}
});
// This may fail in CLOCK mode.
assert cache.get(1) == 2;
I agree that the documentation must be updated accordingly, and I think the
warning printed should contain a link to the page.
Any other thoughts?
