when I did the update, I worked with ‘bela’

this is from an email I sent in Jan 2015:

There are some internals that had to be adjusted, but when I updated ERJGroupsSynchronizer, I worked directly with Bela (jGroups author) to understand the changes needed.
In a nutshell, he eliminated his Exception checking and changed to use the Java Exceptions. remove the section:

if (ERXProperties.booleanForKeyWithDefault("er.extensions.jgroupsSynchronizer.autoReconnect", true)) {
_channel.setOpt(Channel.AUTO_RECONNECT, Boolean.TRUE);
}
as (in his words) Shunning was removed a long time ago.

there are a couple of others and he said, <bela__> tedpet: I also suggest use a config file shipped with the version you download, e.g. udp.xml, and then make slight modifications to it, if needed"

I have this working on a production server.

Paul,

These are the basic reasons I didn’t tackle this as well. I can’t imagine anyone would want to use the very old JGroups jar, but who knows? Maybe we need a way for someone to post feedback so that we can determine whether or not it’s OK to upgrade.

Hi Ted,

don’t know if this is of interest but I created a pull request for this:

Thanks for pointing this out. I didn’t know this pull request was open. It kind of helps to demonstrate, though, why I was reluctant to touch the framework directly myself—I simply don’t know enough about it. What I got running on EC2, for example, uses the 3.4.0 JAR. Does this matter? I don’t know. Does updating 2.6.8 to 3.4.0 (let alone 3.6.1) cause backward-compatibility issues? I don’t know. Mike Schrag wrote it, and he’s long gone—does anyone else understand it deeply? I don’t know.

This also ties in nicely with the thread started by Jean Pierre Malrieu the other day. A pull request like Ted’s doesn’t sit there for three months untouched because no one cares, it’s because no one _dares_.
