Class AbstractFallbackCacheOperationSource

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.cache.interceptor.AbstractFallbackCacheOperationSource
All Implemented Interfaces:
CacheOperationSource
Direct Known Subclasses:
AnnotationCacheOperationSource

public abstract class AbstractFallbackCacheOperationSource
extends Object
implements CacheOperationSource

Abstract implementation of CacheOperation that caches attributes for methods and implements a fallback policy: 1. specific target method; 2. target class; 3. declaring method; 4. declaring class/interface.

Defaults to using the target class's caching attribute if none is associated with the target method. Any caching attribute associated with the target method completely overrides a class caching attribute. If none found on the target class, the interface that the invoked method has been called through (in case of a JDK proxy) will be checked.

This implementation caches attributes by method after they are first used. If it is ever desirable to allow dynamic changing of cacheable attributes (which is very unlikely), caching could be made configurable.

Field Detail

logger

protected final Log logger
Logger available to subclasses.

As this base class is not marked Serializable, the logger will be recreated after serialization - provided that the concrete subclass is Serializable.

public AbstractFallbackCacheOperationSource()
Method Detail

getCacheOperations

public Collection<CacheOperation> getCacheOperations(Method method,
                                                     Class<?> targetClass)
Determine the caching attribute for this method invocation.

Defaults to the class's caching attribute if no method attribute is found.

Specified by:
getCacheOperations in interface CacheOperationSource
Parameters:
method - the method for the current invocation (never null)
targetClass - the target class for this invocation (may be null)
Returns:
CacheOperation for this method, or null if the method is not cacheable

getCacheKey

protected Object getCacheKey(Method method,
                             Class<?> targetClass)
Determine a cache key for the given method and target class.

Must not produce same key for overloaded methods. Must produce same key for different instances of the same method.

Parameters:
method - the method (never null)
targetClass - the target class (may be null)
Returns:
the cache key (never null)

findCacheOperations

protected abstract Collection<CacheOperation> findCacheOperations(Method method)
Subclasses need to implement this to return the caching attribute for the given method, if any.

Parameters:
method - the method to retrieve the attribute for
Returns:
all caching attribute associated with this method (or null if none)

findCacheOperations

protected abstract Collection<CacheOperation> findCacheOperations(Class<?> clazz)
Subclasses need to implement this to return the caching attribute for the given class, if any.

Parameters:
clazz - the class to retrieve the attribute for
Returns:
all caching attribute associated with this class (or null if none)

allowPublicMethodsOnly

protected boolean allowPublicMethodsOnly()
Should only public methods be allowed to have caching semantics?

The default implementation returns false.
