Re: reads which modify data

Stop thinking in terms of "reads which modify data" and think about it
as "lazy evaluation", which is perfectly ok. Something like this:


Object executeQuery(Date executionTime) {

   synchronized (_system) {
      if (!isStateUpdatedTo(executionTime))
         updateStateWithReallyComplexAndPseudoRandomRulesTo(executionTime);
   }

   return queryStateWhatever();
}


See you, Klaus.
