Hi! what's the pzxid field in the stat structure for? couldn't find any information in the programmer's guide...

Hi Tassos,
 There is some documention in src/zookeeper.jute:

 long pzxid;      // last modified children

But, we should probably add some documentation in the programmer's
guide. Can you please open  a jira/upload a patch :)?

thanks

That brings up a question I was asking myself.  Why are there not
crate and delete methods which optionally require the parent's
children version? (i.e. optimistic concurrency control for the
creation and deletion of nodes)

Cheers,
Dan

Good question.

One thought is that you can use the multi for this except that I don't know if the parent version changes when adding or removing a child.  On the other hand you could also update the content of the parent in the same multi to free the version update.

the pzxid from the users point of view is purely informational.
internally we use it to figure out if we need to trigger watches on
reconnect.

both the pzxid and the cversion are updated when adding or removing children.

hi, everyone.
Any one who use https://github.com/sgroschupf/zkclient this.

In zk original api, there is api: zk.addAuthInfo(authentication_type,
correctAuthentication.getBytes());

but in https://github.com/sgroschupf/zkclient, no.

who can tell me why?
or who know the author of the zkclient.
