MuxRpcDispatcher alters RequestOption's filter by encapsulating it with a NoMuxHandlerRspFilter. Passing the same instance of RequestOptions to rpc calls leads to :

Solutions :
1/ "Clone" RequestOption at each call like fix used in https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1271. The drawback with this solution, is the performance concern : useless object creation if a RequestOption is reused.

2/ Don't encapsulate RequestOption if a NoMuxHandlerRspFilter is already setted. Modification concerns two classes :

• NoMuxHandlerRspFilter
  private NoMuxHandlerRspFilter(RspFilter filter) { this.filter = filter; }

public static RspFilter createInstance(RspFilter filter) {
if (filter instanceof NoMuxHandlerRspFilter)

return new NoMuxHandlerRspFilter(filter) ;
}

• MuxRpcDispatcher
  protected GroupRequest cast(Collection<Address> dests, Message msg, RequestOptions options, boolean blockForResults) { RspFilter filter = options.getRspFilter(); return super.cast(dests, msg, options.setRspFilter(NoMuxHandlerRspFilter.createInstance(filter)), blockForResults); }
