Hi,

I have created a tree cache instance in which I am adding a node via the method put(fqn, key, value). From the documentation, if that node does not exist, which is the situation in my test, a nodeCreated notification will be emitted. However, this is not the case. My listener receives both a nodeCreated AND nodeModified notification for that single action.

My listener extends the abstract listener and overrides a couple of methods:

public class CacheListener extends AbstractTreeCacheListener
{
 public CacheListener()
 {
 System.err.println("listener created");
 }

 @Override
 public void nodeCreated(Fqn fqn)
 {
 System.err.println("node created");
 }

 @Override
 public void nodeModified(Fqn fqn)
 {
 System.err.println("node modified");
 }
}

My main class creates the cache instance, reigisters the listener and creates a node with data:

public static void main(String[] args)
 {
 try
 {
 System.err.println("starting test");
 TreeCache tree = new TreeCache();
 CacheListener listener = new CacheListener();
 tree.addTreeCacheListener(listener);

 tree.setClusterName("test");
 tree.setClusterProperties("default.xml");
 tree.setCacheMode(TreeCache.LOCAL);
 tree.createService();
 tree.startService();
 tree.put("/a", "name", "James");
 tree.stopService();
 tree.destroyService();
 System.err.println("end of test");
 }
 catch(Exception ex)
 {
 System.err.println("Got an exception: " + ex.getMessage());
 }
 }

The output is as follows:
starting test
listener created
node created
node modified
end of test

Is this the expected behavior with incorrect documentation? Or am I not utilizing the API properly? Any pointers are appreciated.

Thanks.

This is correct behaviour, as per the documentation. First a node is created (and is empty) and it is then modified to apply it's state.
