This package contains configuration classes and interfaces.

See: Description

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
CacheEntryListenerConfiguration<K,V>	Defines the configuration requirements for a CacheEntryListener and a Factory for its creation.
CompleteConfiguration<K,V>	A read-only representation of the complete JCache Cache configuration.
Configuration<K,V>	A basic read-only representation of a Cache configuration.
Factory<T>	Constructs and returns a fully configured instance of a specific factory type.

Class Summary

Class	Description
FactoryBuilder	A convenience class that defines generically typed static methods to aid in the building of Factory instances.
FactoryBuilder.ClassFactory<T>	A Factory that instantiates a specific Class.
FactoryBuilder.SingletonFactory<T>	A Factory that always returns a specific instance.
MutableCacheEntryListenerConfiguration<K,V>	A convenience class providing a mutable, serializable implementation of a CacheEntryListenerConfiguration.
MutableConfiguration<K,V>	A simple mutable implementation of a Configuration.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
OptionalFeature	Optional features that may be present in an implementation.

Package javax.cache.configuration Description

This package contains configuration classes and interfaces.

Rather than configuration accepting user instances of interfaces for maximum portability factories are configured instead, so that instances can be instantiated where needed. To aid in this, FactoryBuilder can build factories of the required type as shown in the following example.

  MutableConfiguration<String, Integer> config = new MutableConfiguration<String, Integer>();

  config.setTypes(String.class, Integer.class)
        .setStoreByValue(false)
        .setStatisticsEnabled(true)
        .setExpiryPolicyFactory(FactoryBuilder.factoryOf(
            new AccessedExpiryPolicy<String>(new Duration(TimeUnit.HOURS, 1))));
 

OptionalFeature, though not specific to cache configuration, allows application to determine the optional features supported at runtime.
