Issue using a GenericRequester with persistent async services

[Vogelsme <mi...@lynx.de>]

Hey!
I was just trying to run a persistent async service with a given requester
and noticed that the requester itself is completely being ignored.
I cross-checked trunk and 13/07 for that issue and both handle async
services the same way; there was no hint in javadoc about that.
There might be some ways to persist and use a stored Object/Requester
(ClassLoader, ObjectStore, ...) for the services. I was wondering if there
is a reason or conceptual issue with that. 

I know the concept of Requesters is rarely used in OFBiz, but we use it to
actively control multithreaded services.

Greetings,
Mirko

Hi Scrott,

thanks for reply. Your research matches exactly with my findings.
I would have expected the object to be serialized or at least log a warning
/ throw an illigalArgumentException / ... .
I don't think that it is a good idea to provide the option (as a method
signature) but then ignore given parameters.

Greetings,
Mirko

Hi Mirko,

I had a quick look at the code and it looks to me like the GenericRequester
is used if passed in but only if the job is run in memory instead of being
persisted to the database.  Are you seeing something different or are you
expecting that it would be serialized and stored with the job?

Regards
Scott
