- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Cloneable

      public class Membership
      extends Object
      implements Cloneable

  A membership implementation using simple multicast. This is the representation of a multicast membership. This class is responsible for maintaining a list of active cluster nodes in the cluster. If a node fails to send out a heartbeat, the node will be dismissed.

    - #### Membership

          public Membership(Member local,
                            boolean includeLocal)

      Constructs a new membership
      Parameters:
        `local` - - has to be the name of the local member. Used to filter the local member from the cluster membership
        `includeLocal` - - TBA

    - #### Membership

          public Membership(Member local)

    - #### Membership

          public Membership(Member local,
                            Comparator<Member> comp)

    - #### Membership

          public Membership(Member local,

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### clone

          public Membership clone()

      Overrides:
        `clone` in class `Object`

    - #### reset

          public void reset()

      Reset the membership and start over fresh. i.e., delete all the members and wait for them to ping again and join this membership.

    - #### memberAlive

          public boolean memberAlive(Member member)

      Notify the membership that this member has announced itself.
      Parameters:
        `member` - - the member that just pinged us
      Returns:
        - true if this member is new to the cluster, false otherwise.
        - false if this member is the local member or updated.

    - #### addMember

          public Membership.MbrEntry addMember(Member member)

      Add a member to this component and sort array with memberComparator
      Parameters:
        `member` - The member to add
      Returns:

    - #### removeMember

      Remove a member from this component.
      Parameters:
        `member` - The member to remove

    - #### expire

          public Member[] expire(long maxtime)

      Runs a refresh cycle and returns a list of members that has expired. This also removes the members from the membership, in such a way that getMembers() = getMembers() - expire()
      Parameters:
        `maxtime` - - the max time a member can remain unannounced before it is considered dead.
      Returns:
        the list of expired members

    - #### hasMembers

          public boolean hasMembers()

      Returning that service has members or not.

    - #### getMember

          public Member getMember(Member mbr)

    - #### contains

          public boolean contains(Member mbr)

    - #### getMembers

          public Member[] getMembers()

      Returning a list of all the members in the membership. We not need a copy: add and remove generate new arrays.
      Returns:
        An array of the current members
