["Henry Robinson (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-434?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Henry Robinson updated ZOOKEEPER-434:
-------------------------------------

    Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-434.patch

Prompt now shows host:port(status)

Also added 'connect' and 'close' to allow for recycling connections without quitting and starting again. If a connection is closed, most operations will report 'Not connected'.

Also included tiny documentation update to get command line parameters right.

> it would be very useful if the java shell showed the current connection status as part of the command prompt.
> this shows itself in particular for the following use case:
> I attempted to connect a java shell to a remote cluster that was unavailable, when I run the first command "ls /" on
> the cluster the shell hangs. It would be nice if the shell indicated connection status in the prompt and make it more
> clear that the shell is currently not connected. (it was hard to see the "attempting to connect" console message as
> it was lost in with the other messaes...)
