[jira] Commented: (DERBY-4700) Add method to obtain a bogus port in TestConfiguration

["Knut Anders Hatlen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4700?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12879031#action_12879031 ] 

Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-4700:
-------------------------------------------

Alternatively, we could initialize it using getNextAvailablePort() in TestConfiguration's constructor, similar to how we allocate the JMX port. Then we don't need extra logic in getNextAvailablePort() to prevent collisions with the last port in the allowed range.

> In some cases one needs to obtain a port number on which there is no Derby network server.
> Today this is solved in an ad-hoc way, for instance by using the current port minus one. When running tests in parallel, there is a chance that a port where there actually is a Derby network server listening is picked.
> As a start, I suggest that the bogus port is allocated to the last port in the port range configured for the run: baseport + MAX_PORTS_USED -1.
