public abstract class BaseDescription
extends java.lang.Object
implements ICacheDescription

This is the base class for cache object descriptions. The base class sets up LRU behavior based on parameters in a configuration file, and also bases expiration on the same class picture.

Nested Class Summary

protected class

BaseDescription.LocalCacheClass This is a cache class implementation that gets expiration and LRU info from .ini variables.

Method Detail

getObjectClass

public ICacheClass getObjectClass()

Get the object class for an object. The object class is used to determine the group of objects treated in the same LRU manner.

Specified by:

getObjectClass in interface ICacheDescription

Returns:

the newly created object's object class, or null if there is no such class, and LRU behavior is not desired.

getObjectExpirationTime

public long getObjectExpirationTime()

Obtain an expiration time for an object, in milliseconds since epoch. The cache manager will call this method for all objects that are being operated on, so that their expiration timestamps get properly updated to a new time.

Specified by:

getObjectExpirationTime in interface ICacheDescription

Returns:

a time in milliseconds for the object to expire, or -1 if there is no expiration desired.
