Thomas Mueller updated JCR-1865:
--------------------------------
Attachment: core_2.patch
api_2.patch
New version.
Backward compatibility: existing applications that cast Session to SessionImpl
should still work.
The existing method in the GarbageCollector didn't change, except
setSleepBetweenNodes, which is probably not used by most applications.
The new interface MarkEventListener is a subclass of ScanEventListener, so this
is not a problem,
but adding a method to MarkEventListener would be a problem.
gc(): while it's possible to create a new method "gc() { mark(); sweep(); }",
I think using two distinct methods shouldn't be a problem.
Having separate method allows sharing the data store _storage_ among multiple
repositories
(where the repositories can be on separate machines). With only gc() there is
now way to
run garbage collection. With mark() and sweep(), it's easy: rep1.mark(),
rep2.mark(),
wait until both methods return, rep1.sweep(), rep1.close(), rep2.close().

> Currently, the garbage collection is not part of the Jackrabbit API. However,
> the data store garbage collection must be used once in a while if the data
> store is enabled. I propose to add the required interfaces to the Jackrabbit
> API. This will also allow to call garbage collection using RMI.
