bootstrap

public void bootstrap()

Bootstrap command. This must be called after the Cache is intialised, during CacheManager initialisation. If loads are synchronous, they will complete before the CacheManager initialise completes, otherwise they will happen in the background.

This method is not intended to be called explicitly, but rather is called implicitly by the cache's CacheManager instance during the cache initialization. Invoking this method directly will likely lead to breaking.

Specified by:

bootstrap in interface Ehcache

calculateInMemorySize

@Deprecated
public long calculateInMemorySize()
                                       throws IllegalStateException,

Warning: This method can be very expensive to run. Allow approximately 1 second per 1MB of entries. Running this method could create liveness problems because the object lock is held for a long period

Specified by:

calculateInMemorySize in interface Ehcache

Returns:

the approximate size of the memory store in bytes

Throws:

IllegalStateException

CacheException

calculateOffHeapSize

@Deprecated
public long calculateOffHeapSize()
                                      throws IllegalStateException,
                                             CacheException

Deprecated.

@Deprecated
public long calculateOnDiskSize()
                                     throws IllegalStateException,
                                            CacheException

public boolean hasAbortedSizeOf()

Check if the cache may contain elements which the SizeOf engine could not fully size.

Specified by:

hasAbortedSizeOf in interface Ehcache

Returns:

true if the cache may contain partially sized objects

disableDynamicFeatures

public void disableDynamicFeatures()

Disables dynamic configuration and disable/enable for this cache.

This is a one time operation. Once an Ehcache instance has had its dynamic operations disabled they cannot be re-enabled.

Specified by:

disableDynamicFeatures in interface Ehcache

dispose

public void dispose()
             throws IllegalStateException

Flushes all cache items from memory to auxilliary caches and close the auxilliary caches.

Should be invoked only by CacheManager.

Specified by:

dispose in interface Ehcache

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

evictExpiredElements

public void evictExpiredElements()

Causes all elements stored in the Cache to be synchronously checked for expiry, and if expired, evicted.

For large caches - or caches with high-latency storage this method can take a very long time to complete. You should seriously consider relying on some form of capacity eviction to control cache capacity over calling this method. As this method can take a long time the cache may not be fully purged of expired elements on return, since more elements may have expired during the call.

Specified by:

evictExpiredElements in interface Ehcache

flush

public void flush()
           throws IllegalStateException,
                  CacheException

Flushes all cache items from memory to the disk store, and from the DiskStore to disk.

Specified by:

flush in interface Ehcache

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

CacheException

getWithLoader

public Element getWithLoader(Object key,
                             CacheLoader loader,
                             Object loaderArgument)
                      throws CacheException

This method will return, from the cache, the object associated with the argument "key".

If the object is not in the cache, the associated cache loader will be called. That is either the CacheLoader passed in, or if null, the one associated with the cache. If both are null, no load is performed and null is returned.

Because this method may take a long time to complete, it is not synchronized. The underlying cache operations are synchronized.

Specified by:

getWithLoader in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

key - key whose associated value is to be returned.

loader - the override loader to use. If null, the cache's default loader will be used

loaderArgument - an argument to pass to the CacheLoader.

Returns:

an element if it existed or could be loaded, otherwise null

Throws:

CacheException - a runtime cache exception

getAllWithLoader

public Map getAllWithLoader(Collection keys,
                            Object loaderArgument)
                     throws CacheException

The getAll method will return, from the cache, a Map of the objects associated with the Collection of keys in argument "keys". If the objects are not in the cache, the associated cache loader will be called. If no loader is associated with an object, a null is returned. If a problem is encountered during the retrieving or loading of the objects, an exception will be thrown. If the "arg" argument is set, the arg object will be passed to the CacheLoader.loadAll method. The cache will not dereference the object. If no "arg" value is provided a null will be passed to the loadAll method. The storing of null values in the cache is permitted, however, the get method will not distinguish returning a null stored in the cache and not finding the object in the cache. In both cases a null is returned.

Note. If the getAll exceeds the maximum cache size, the returned map will necessarily be less than the number specified.

Because this method may take a long time to complete, it is not synchronized. The underlying cache operations are synchronized.

The constructs package provides similar functionality using the decorator SelfPopulatingCache

Specified by:

getAllWithLoader in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

keys - a collection of keys to be returned/loaded

loaderArgument - an argument to pass to the CacheLoader.

Returns:

registerCacheLoader

public void registerCacheLoader(CacheLoader cacheLoader)

Register a CacheLoader with the cache. It will then be tied into the cache lifecycle.

The CacheLoader instance will be initialized when the cache itself is being initialized. Should the cache already be initialized, CacheLoader.init() will not be invoked. If the loader requires initialization, the user will have to call it manually before registering it with a Cache instance that's already alive

Specified by:

registerCacheLoader in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

cacheLoader - A Cache Loader to register

unregisterCacheLoader

public void unregisterCacheLoader(CacheLoader cacheLoader)

Unregister a CacheLoader with the cache. It will then be detached from the cache lifecycle.

Specified by:

unregisterCacheLoader in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

cacheLoader - A Cache Loader to unregister

load

public void load(Object key)
          throws CacheException

The load method provides a means to "pre load" the cache. This method will, asynchronously, load the specified object into the cache using the associated cacheloader. If the object already exists in the cache, no action is taken. If no loader is associated with the object, no object will be loaded into the cache. If a problem is encountered during the retrieving or loading of the object, an exception should be logged. If the "arg" argument is set, the arg object will be passed to the CacheLoader.load method. The cache will not dereference the object. If no "arg" value is provided a null will be passed to the load method. The storing of null values in the cache is permitted, however, the get method will not distinguish returning a null stored in the cache and not finding the object in the cache. In both cases a null is returned.

The Ehcache native API provides similar functionality to loaders using the decorator SelfPopulatingCache

Specified by:

load in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

key - key whose associated value to be loaded using the associated cacheloader if this cache doesn't contain it.

Throws:

CacheException - a runtime cache exception

loadAll

public void loadAll(Collection keys,
                    Object argument)
             throws CacheException

The loadAll method provides a means to "pre load" objects into the cache. This method will, asynchronously, load the specified objects into the cache using the associated cache loader. If the an object already exists in the cache, no action is taken. If no loader is associated with the object, no object will be loaded into the cache. If a problem is encountered during the retrieving or loading of the objects, an exception (to be defined) should be logged. The getAll method will return, from the cache, a Map of the objects associated with the Collection of keys in argument "keys". If the objects are not in the cache, the associated cache loader will be called. If no loader is associated with an object, a null is returned. If a problem is encountered during the retrieving or loading of the objects, an exception (to be defined) will be thrown. If the "arg" argument is set, the arg object will be passed to the CacheLoader.loadAll method. The cache will not dereference the object. If no "arg" value is provided a null will be passed to the loadAll method.

Specified by:

loadAll in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

keys - - collection of the keys whose associated values to be loaded into this cache by using the associated cacheloader if this cache doesn't contain them.

argument - can be anything that makes sense to the loader

                                     throws IllegalStateException

Deprecated.

Returns the number of elements in the off-heap store.

Specified by:

getKeys

public List getKeys()
             throws IllegalStateException,
                    CacheException

Returns a list of all elements in the cache, whether or not they are expired.

The returned keys are unique and can be considered a set.

The List returned is not live. It is a copy.

The time taken is O(n). For large caches - or caches with high-latency storage this method can take a very long time to complete, may cause timeouts if using features such NonStopCache or transactions, and is not guaranteed to give a consistent view of the cache entry set. Usage is highly discouraged.

Specified by:

getKeys in interface Ehcache

Returns:

a list of Object keys

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

CacheException

getKeysNoDuplicateCheck

public List getKeysNoDuplicateCheck()
                             throws IllegalStateException

Returns a list of all elements in the cache, whether or not they are expired.

The returned keys are not unique and may contain duplicates. If the cache is only using the memory store, the list will be unique. If the disk store is being used as well, it will likely contain duplicates, because of the internal store design.

The List returned is not live. It is a copy.

The time taken is O(log n). On a single cpu 1.8Ghz P4, approximately 6ms is required for 1000 entries and 36 for 50000.

This is the fastest getKeys method

Specified by:

getKeysNoDuplicateCheck in interface Ehcache

Returns:

a list of Object keys

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

getKeysWithExpiryCheck

public List getKeysWithExpiryCheck()
                            throws IllegalStateException,
                                   CacheException

Returns a list of all elements in the cache. Only keys of non-expired elements are returned.

The returned keys are unique and can be considered a set.

The List returned is not live. It is a copy.

For large caches - or caches with high-latency storage this method can take a very long time to complete. You should seriously consider whether your usage requires checking for expired keys before choosing to call this method. As this method can take a long time the results may also be significantly out of date by the time the method returns.

Specified by:

getKeysWithExpiryCheck in interface Ehcache

Returns:

a list of Object keys

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

CacheException

getMemoryStoreSize

getSize

public int getSize()
            throws IllegalStateException,
                   CacheException

Gets the size of the cache. This is a subtle concept. See below.

The size is the number of Elements in the MemoryStore plus the number of Elements in the DiskStore.

This number is the actual number of elements, including expired elements that have not been removed.

Expired elements are removed from the the memory store when getting an expired element, or when attempting to spool an expired element to disk.

Expired elements are removed from the disk store when getting an expired element, or when the expiry thread runs, which is once every five minutes.

To get an exact size, which would exclude expired elements, use Ehcache.getKeysWithExpiryCheck().size(), although see that method for the approximate time that would take.

To get a very fast result, use Ehcache.getKeysNoDuplicateCheck().size(). If the disk store is being used, there will be some duplicates.

Note:getSize() is a very expensive operation in off-heap, disk and Terracotta implementations.

Specified by:

getSize in interface Ehcache

Returns:

The size value

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the cache is not Status.STATUS_ALIVE

CacheException

key - - The key that retrieves a value that you want to protect via locking

timeout - - millis until giveup on getting the lock

Returns:

whether the lock was awarded

Throws:

InterruptedException - if the thread was interrupted

Returns true if a read lock for the key is held by the current thread

Specified by:

isReadLockedByCurrentThread in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

key - the key

Returns:

true if a read lock for the key is held by the current thread

isWriteLockedByCurrentThread

public boolean isWriteLockedByCurrentThread(Object key)

Returns true if a write lock for the key is held by the current thread

Specified by:

isWriteLockedByCurrentThread in interface Ehcache

isClusterBulkLoadEnabled

public boolean isClusterBulkLoadEnabled()
                                 throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                                        TerracottaNotRunningException

Returns true if at least one node in the cluster is in bulk-load mode. Returns false otherwise.

NOTE: if Ehcache.isNodeBulkLoadEnabled() returns true, this method will always return true. Applies to caches clustered with Terracotta only.

Specified by:

isClusterBulkLoadEnabled in interface Ehcache

Returns:

true if the cache is in bulk-load mode cluster-wide, false otherwise

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the cache is not clustered with Terracotta

TerracottaNotRunningException

isNodeBulkLoadEnabled

public boolean isNodeBulkLoadEnabled()
                              throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                                     TerracottaNotRunningException

Returns true if the current node is in bulk-load mode. Returns false otherwise.

NOTE: if this method returns true, Ehcache.isClusterBulkLoadEnabled() method will always return true. Applies to caches clustered with Terracotta only.

Specified by:

isNodeBulkLoadEnabled in interface Ehcache

Returns:

true if the cache is in coherent mode cluster-wide, false otherwise

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the cache is not clustered with Terracotta

TerracottaNotRunningException

setNodeBulkLoadEnabled

public void setNodeBulkLoadEnabled(boolean enabledBulkLoad)
                            throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                                   TerracottaNotRunningException

Enable/disable bulk-load mode in this node for this cache. Calling setBulkLoadEnabled(true) when the cache is already in bulk-load mode or calling setBulkLoadEnabled(false) when already NOT in bulk-load mode will be a no-op.

Applies to caches clustered with Terracotta only.

When using Terracotta clustered caches with nonstop enabled, the timeout used by this method is NonstopConfiguration.getBulkOpsTimeoutMultiplyFactor() times the timeout value in the nonstop config.

Specified by:

setNodeBulkLoadEnabled in interface Ehcache

Parameters:

enabledBulkLoad - true enables bulk-load, false disables it if not already disabled

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the cache is not clustered with Terracotta

TerracottaNotRunningException

waitUntilClusterBulkLoadComplete

public void waitUntilClusterBulkLoadComplete()
                                      throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                                             TerracottaNotRunningException

This method waits until all the connected nodes have disabled bulk-load. Or in other words, calling this method will block until all connected nodes in the cluster disables bulk-load. If none of the nodes did not enable bulk-load this method will return immediately

Applies to caches clustered with Terracotta only.

Specified by:

waitUntilClusterBulkLoadComplete in interface Ehcache

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the cache is not clustered with Terracotta

TerracottaNotRunningException
