> RegionVersionVector.updateLocalVersion can go into an infinite loop

> Key: GEODE-4083

> RegionVersionVector.updateLocalVersion can go into an infinite loop.
> The problem is this code:
> {code}
> private void updateLocalVersion(long version) {
> boolean repeat = false;
> do {
> long myVersion = this.localVersion.get();
> if (myVersion < version) {
> repeat = !this.localVersion.compareAndSet(myVersion, version);
> }
> } while (repeat);
> }
> {code}
> if version is "1" and localVersion.get() returns "0" the first time it is
> called but then compareAndSet returns false because localVersion has changed
> to "2" then the loop will never terminate because repeat will always be false
> and myVersion ("2" or more) will never be less than version ("1").
> The simple fix is to be sure repeat is set to false when myVersion is >= to
> version.
