Dmitry Minkovsky created CURATOR-230:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Get remaining semaphore count upon lease acquisition
                 Key: CURATOR-230
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CURATOR-230
             Project: Apache Curator
          Issue Type: Wish

    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
            Reporter: Dmitry Minkovsky
            Priority: Trivial


I'm using Curator to help generate IDs in a distributed environment. My IDs are pretty typical: 64 bits with three components: timestamp, worker, count. The worker component comes from a Curator {{DistributedAtomicNumber}} modulo the max number of workers. To make sure that at any given time the number of workers don't exceed the max number of workers, each worker needs to take an {{InterProcessSemaphoreV2}} before it gets its worker ID. It seems that this would be simpler if I could just get a lease count upon acquiring an {{InterProcessSemaphoreV2}}. Would this be possible? Thank you.
