Class AbstractCache<K,V>

public abstract class AbstractCache<K,V>
extends Object
implements Cache<K,V>

This class provides a skeletal implementation of the Cache interface to minimize the effort required to implement this interface.

To implement a cache, the programmer needs only to extend this class and provide an implementation for the Cache.getIfPresent(K) method. getAllPresent(java.lang.Iterable) is implemented in terms of getIfPresent; invalidateAll(Iterable) is implemented in terms of invalidate(java.lang.Object). The method cleanUp() is a no-op. All other methods throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

Method Detail

get

public V get(K key,
             Callable<? extends V> valueLoader)
      throws ExecutionException
Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns the value associated with key in this cache, obtaining that value from valueLoader if necessary. No observable state associated with this cache is modified until loading completes. This method provides a simple substitute for the conventional "if cached, return; otherwise create, cache and return" pattern.

Warning: as with CacheLoader.load(K), valueLoader must not return null; it may either return a non-null value or throw an exception.

Specified by:
get in interface Cache<K,V>
Throws:
ExecutionException - if a checked exception was thrown while loading the value
Since:
11.0

getAllPresent

public ImmutableMap<K,V> getAllPresent(Iterable<? extends K> keys)
Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns a map of the values associated with keys in this cache. The returned map will only contain entries which are already present in the cache.

Specified by:
getAllPresent in interface Cache<K,V>
Since:
11.0

put

public void put(K key,
                V value)
Description copied from interface: Cache
Associates value with key in this cache. If the cache previously contained a value associated with key, the old value is replaced by value.

Prefer Cache.get(Object, Callable) when using the conventional "if cached, return; otherwise create, cache and return" pattern.

Specified by:
put in interface Cache<K,V>
Since:
11.0

cleanUp

public void cleanUp()
Description copied from interface: Cache
Performs any pending maintenance operations needed by the cache. Exactly which activities are performed -- if any -- is implementation-dependent.

Specified by:
cleanUp in interface Cache<K,V>

size

public long size()
Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns the approximate number of entries in this cache.

Specified by:
size in interface Cache<K,V>

invalidate

public void invalidate(Object key)
Description copied from interface: Cache
Discards any cached value for key key.

Specified by:
invalidate in interface Cache<K,V>

invalidateAll

public void invalidateAll(Iterable<?> keys)
Description copied from interface: Cache
Discards any cached values for keys keys.

Specified by:
invalidateAll in interface Cache<K,V>
Since:
11.0

invalidateAll

public void invalidateAll()
Description copied from interface: Cache
Discards all entries in the cache.

Specified by:
invalidateAll in interface Cache<K,V>

stats

public CacheStats stats()
Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns a current snapshot of this cache's cumulative statistics. All stats are initialized to zero, and are monotonically increasing over the lifetime of the cache.

Specified by:
stats in interface Cache<K,V>

asMap

public ConcurrentMap<K,V> asMap()
Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns a view of the entries stored in this cache as a thread-safe map. Modifications made to the map directly affect the cache.

Specified by:
asMap in interface Cache<K,V>

getUnchecked

@Deprecated
public V getUnchecked(K key)
Deprecated. 

Description copied from interface: Cache
Returns the value associated with key in this cache, first loading that value if necessary. No observable state associated with this cache is modified until computation completes. Unlike Cache.get(K, java.util.concurrent.Callable), this method does not throw a checked exception, and thus should only be used in situations where checked exceptions are not thrown by the cache loader.

Warning: this method silently converts checked exceptions to unchecked exceptions, and should not be used with cache loaders which throw checked exceptions.

Specified by:
getUnchecked in interface Cache<K,V>

apply

@Deprecated
public V apply(K key)
Deprecated. 

Description copied from interface: Cache
Discouraged. Provided to satisfy the Function interface; use Cache.get(K, java.util.concurrent.Callable) or Cache.getUnchecked(K) instead.

Specified by:
apply in interface Function<K,V>
Specified by:
apply in interface Cache<K,V>
