treecache Exception "invocationBatching is not enabled" with configured batching="true" in AS7 infinispan subsystem

Hello,

trying to get the treecache working inside a JBoss AS7 7.1.0-x, there is a problem within the configuration parameter "invocationBatching". Although batching is enabled, treecache is not recognizing it.

I think the reason is that treecache is using the deprecated configuration API. (e.g. TreeCacheFactory#createTreeCache)

AS7 cache configurations:

  <cache-container name="myappCache" default-cache="repl">
    <local-cache name="default" batching="true">
      <eviction strategy="LRU"/>
    </local-cache>
  
    <distributed-cache mode="SYNC" name="repl" batching="true">
      <locking isolation="REPEATABLE_READ"/>
    </distributed-cache>
  </cache-container>
  ...

Example usage:

@Singleton
public class CacheServiceBean {

  @Resource(mappedName = "java:jboss/infinispan/myappCache")
  CacheContainer infinispanCacheContainer;
  
  TreeCache tc;
  
  @PostConstruct
  public void init(){ 
    this.tc = new TreeCacheFactory().createTreeCache(infinispanCacheContainer.getCache());
  }  
}

Resulting exception:

org.infinispan.config.ConfigurationException: invocationBatching is not enabled. Make sure this is enabled by calling config.setInvocationBatchingEnabled(true)
