[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1160) race with insufficiently constructed Gossiper

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1160?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12876459#action_12876459 ] 

Gary Dusbabek commented on CASSANDRA-1160:
------------------------------------------

What were the failures in testClientOnlyMode?  I'm sure they can be worked around.

I'm not a fan of Gossiper.preRegistrations.  I think it is a code smell that we're not spinning up Gossiper the right way.  What if we were to make Gossiper.start() blocking until we were sure it was in a healthy state (keep in mind the single-node cluster) and then make sure it was called before MessageService.listen()?

> Gossiper.start needs to be integrated into the constructor.  Currently you can have threads using the gossiper instance before start finishes (or even starts?), resulting in tracebacks like this:
