Interface ScopeCache

All Known Implementing Classes:
StandardScopeCache, ThreadLocalScopeCache
public interface ScopeCache
A special-purpose cache interface specifically for the GenericScope to use to manage cached bean instances. Implementations generally fall into two categories: those that store values "globally" (i.e. one instance per key), and those that store potentially multiple instances per key based on context (e.g. via a thread local). All implementations should be thread safe.
