Class EhCacheFactoryBean

java.lang.Object

net.sf.ehcache.config.CacheConfiguration

org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheFactoryBean

All Implemented Interfaces:

Cloneable, Aware, BeanNameAware, FactoryBean<Ehcache>, InitializingBean

public class EhCacheFactoryBean
extends CacheConfiguration
implements FactoryBean<Ehcache>, BeanNameAware, InitializingBean

FactoryBean that creates a named EhCache Cache instance (or a decorator that implements the Ehcache interface), representing a cache region within an EhCache CacheManager.

If the specified named cache is not configured in the cache configuration descriptor, this FactoryBean will construct an instance of a Cache with the provided name and the specified cache properties and add it to the CacheManager for later retrieval. If some or all properties are not set at configuration time, this FactoryBean will use defaults.

Note: If the named Cache instance is found, the properties will be ignored and the Cache instance will be retrieved from the CacheManager.

Note: As of Spring 4.0, Spring's EhCache support requires EhCache 2.1 or higher. We recommend the use of EhCache 2.5 or higher.

Since:

1.1.1

EhCacheFactoryBean

public EhCacheFactoryBean()

Method Detail

setCacheManager

public void setCacheManager(CacheManager cacheManager)

Set a CacheManager from which to retrieve a named Cache instance. By default, CacheManager.getInstance() will be called.

Note that in particular for persistent caches, it is advisable to properly handle the shutdown of the CacheManager: Set up a separate EhCacheManagerFactoryBean and pass a reference to this bean property.

A separate EhCacheManagerFactoryBean is also necessary for loading EhCache configuration from a non-default config location.

See Also:

EhCacheManagerFactoryBean, CacheManager.getInstance()

setCacheName

public void setCacheName(String cacheName)

Set a name for which to retrieve or create a cache instance. Default is the bean name of this EhCacheFactoryBean.

setTimeToLive

public void setTimeToLive(int timeToLive)

See Also:

CacheConfiguration.setTimeToLiveSeconds(long)

setTimeToIdle

public void setTimeToIdle(int timeToIdle)

See Also:

CacheConfiguration.setTimeToIdleSeconds(long)

setDiskSpoolBufferSize

public void setDiskSpoolBufferSize(int diskSpoolBufferSize)

See Also:

CacheConfiguration.setDiskSpoolBufferSizeMB(int)

setBlocking

public void setBlocking(boolean blocking)

Set whether to use a blocking cache that lets read attempts block until the requested element is created.

If you intend to build a self-populating blocking cache, consider specifying a CacheEntryFactory.

See Also:

BlockingCache, setCacheEntryFactory(net.sf.ehcache.constructs.blocking.CacheEntryFactory)

setCacheEntryFactory

public void setCacheEntryFactory(CacheEntryFactory cacheEntryFactory)

Set an EhCache CacheEntryFactory to use for a self-populating cache. If such a factory is specified, the cache will be decorated with EhCache's SelfPopulatingCache.

The specified factory can be of type UpdatingCacheEntryFactory, which will lead to the use of an UpdatingSelfPopulatingCache.

Note: Any such self-populating cache is automatically a blocking cache.

See Also:

SelfPopulatingCache, UpdatingSelfPopulatingCache, UpdatingCacheEntryFactory

setBootstrapCacheLoader

public void setBootstrapCacheLoader(BootstrapCacheLoader bootstrapCacheLoader)

Set an EhCache BootstrapCacheLoader for this cache, if any.

setCacheEventListeners

public void setCacheEventListeners(Set<CacheEventListener> cacheEventListeners)

Specify EhCache cache event listeners to registered with this cache.

setStatisticsEnabled

public void setStatisticsEnabled(boolean statisticsEnabled)

Set whether to enable EhCache statistics on this cache.

Note: As of EhCache 2.7, statistics are enabled by default, and cannot be turned off. This setter therefore has no effect in such a scenario.

See Also:

Ehcache.setStatisticsEnabled(boolean)

setSampledStatisticsEnabled

public void setSampledStatisticsEnabled(boolean sampledStatisticsEnabled)

Set whether to enable EhCache's sampled statistics on this cache.

Note: As of EhCache 2.7, statistics are enabled by default, and cannot be turned off. This setter therefore has no effect in such a scenario.

See Also:

Ehcache.setSampledStatisticsEnabled(boolean)

setDisabled

public void setDisabled(boolean disabled)

Set whether this cache should be marked as disabled.

See Also:

Cache.setDisabled(boolean)

setBeanName

public void setBeanName(String name)

Description copied from interface: BeanNameAware

Set the name of the bean in the bean factory that created this bean.

Invoked after population of normal bean properties but before an init callback such as InitializingBean.afterPropertiesSet() or a custom init-method.

Specified by:

setBeanName in interface BeanNameAware

Parameters:

name - the name of the bean in the factory. Note that this name is the actual bean name used in the factory, which may differ from the originally specified name: in particular for inner bean names, the actual bean name might have been made unique through appending "#..." suffixes. Use the BeanFactoryUtils.originalBeanName(String) method to extract the original bean name (without suffix), if desired.

afterPropertiesSet

public void afterPropertiesSet()
                        throws CacheException,
                               IOException

Description copied from interface: InitializingBean

Invoked by a BeanFactory after it has set all bean properties supplied (and satisfied BeanFactoryAware and ApplicationContextAware).

This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

Specified by:

afterPropertiesSet in interface InitializingBean

Throws:

CacheException

IOException

createCache

protected Cache createCache()

Create a raw Cache object based on the configuration of this FactoryBean.

decorateCache

protected Ehcache decorateCache(Ehcache cache)

Decorate the given Cache, if necessary.

Parameters:

cache - the raw Cache object, based on the configuration of this FactoryBean

Returns:

the (potentially decorated) cache object to be registered with the CacheManager

getObject

public Ehcache getObject()

Description copied from interface: FactoryBean

Return an instance (possibly shared or independent) of the object managed by this factory.

As with a BeanFactory, this allows support for both the Singleton and Prototype design pattern.

If this FactoryBean is not fully initialized yet at the time of the call (for example because it is involved in a circular reference), throw a corresponding FactoryBeanNotInitializedException.

As of Spring 2.0, FactoryBeans are allowed to return null objects. The factory will consider this as normal value to be used; it will not throw a FactoryBeanNotInitializedException in this case anymore. FactoryBean implementations are encouraged to throw FactoryBeanNotInitializedException themselves now, as appropriate.

Specified by:

getObject in interface FactoryBean<Ehcache>

Returns:

an instance of the bean (can be null)

See Also:

FactoryBeanNotInitializedException

getObjectType

public Class<? extends Ehcache> getObjectType()

Predict the particular Ehcache implementation that will be returned from getObject() based on logic in createCache() and decorateCache(Ehcache) as orchestrated by afterPropertiesSet().

Specified by:

getObjectType in interface FactoryBean<Ehcache>

Returns:

the type of object that this FactoryBean creates, or null if not known at the time of the call

See Also:

ListableBeanFactory.getBeansOfType(java.lang.Class<T>)

isSingleton

public boolean isSingleton()

Description copied from interface: FactoryBean

Is the object managed by this factory a singleton? That is, will FactoryBean.getObject() always return the same object (a reference that can be cached)?

NOTE: If a FactoryBean indicates to hold a singleton object, the object returned from getObject() might get cached by the owning BeanFactory. Hence, do not return true unless the FactoryBean always exposes the same reference.

The singleton status of the FactoryBean itself will generally be provided by the owning BeanFactory; usually, it has to be defined as singleton there.

NOTE: This method returning false does not necessarily indicate that returned objects are independent instances. An implementation of the extended SmartFactoryBean interface may explicitly indicate independent instances through its SmartFactoryBean.isPrototype() method. Plain FactoryBean implementations which do not implement this extended interface are simply assumed to always return independent instances if the isSingleton() implementation returns false.

Specified by:

isSingleton in interface FactoryBean<Ehcache>

Returns:

whether the exposed object is a singleton

FactoryBean.getObject(), SmartFactoryBean.isPrototype()
