A listener which receives CacheEntryCreatedEvent + CacheEntryModifiedEvent events always has a null value after a Cache.put while a Cache.put which replaces delivers the actual value.

It would be advantageous if the beheaviour of the delivered modify events did not deliver null values after a put which is different from a put which replaces which does deliver the actual value. It is also not possible to take the key from the create event and try and read the cache. I have tried printing both when the Event.isPre() field is false and true and the value is null.

Please examine the provided test harness which includes some prints the output which demonstrates the problem...

Running the test should print something like this

[ GlobalComponentRegistry] - Infinispan version: Infinispan 'Ursus' 4.2.0.CR3
[ ComponentRegistry] - Infinispan version: Infinispan 'Ursus' 4.2.0.CR3

key= cant do get value
isPre=true
event.getCache().get(event.getKey())=null
CREATE EVENT
key= cant do get value

event.getCache().get(event.getKey())=null
MODIFIED EVENT
key=null
isPre=true
event.getCache().get(event.getKey())=null
MODIFIED EVENT
