Id	Created	Title	Description	Workaround
#430	04/24/09	Difference in ClassID type/range between .NET, C++ and Java	The difference in the ClassId type/range between C++, .NET and Java could clash and cause undefined behavior.	Use class IDs well within the signed integer range to avoid undefined behaviour between C++, .NET and Java APIs.
#469	09/02/09	Exceptions from the server containing non-ascii data are not correctly logged by the client	The Native Client is interpreting the Exception strings that are sent from the server as ascii; however, when the server is configured for a non-English locale that has a message bundle (such as "ja_JP" aka Japanese) it is possible for these strings to contain utf-16 encoded data. In these cases the Native Client will split each 2-byte character into two 1-byte characters which produces gibberish. The problem only impacts logging, all non-ascii strings stored in the cache itself are correctly preserved.
#513	02/09/10	CacheableString.Value may cause AccessViolationException during memory pressure	In some scenarios such as low memory situations CacheableString.Value may throw an AccessViolationException.	Use an intermediate temporary value such as: CacheableString temp = ((CacheableString)region.Get(key)); var y = temp.Value; And use "y" from then on.
#584	05/28/10	Region expiration does not work when statistics are disabled.	If statistics sampling is disabled then region expiration functionality does not work.
#639	02/22/11	Destroy on a non existent entry reduces region size by one.	If a destroy operation is performed on a non existent entry in a region the region size reported is reduced by one.
#834	10/22/12	removeEx(key) returns true even when entry is not present (non existent entry) in the region.	removeEx(key) returns true even when entry is not present (non existent entry) in the distributed region.
