Element Detail

cacheNames

public abstract String[] cacheNames

Names of the default caches to consider for caching operations defined in the annotated class.

If none is set at the operation level, these are used instead of the default.

May be used to determine the target cache (or caches), matching the qualifier value or the bean names of a specific bean definition.

Default:

{}

keyGenerator

public abstract String keyGenerator

The bean name of the default KeyGenerator to use for the class.

If none is set at the operation level, this one is used instead of the default.

The key generator is mutually exclusive with the use of a custom key. When such key is defined for the operation, the value of this key generator is ignored.

Default:

""

cacheManager

public abstract String cacheManager

The bean name of the custom CacheManager to use to create a default CacheResolver if none is set already.

If no resolver and no cache manager are set at the operation level, and no cache resolver is set via cacheResolver(), this one is used instead of the default.

cacheResolver

public abstract String cacheResolver

The bean name of the custom CacheResolver to use.
