Interface CacheMXBean

@MXBean
public interface CacheMXBean

A management bean for cache. It provides configuration information. It does not allow mutation of configuration.

Each cache's management object must be registered with an ObjectName that is unique and has the following type and attributes:

Type: javax.cache:type=Cache

Required Attributes:

• CacheManager the name of the CacheManager
• Cache the name of the Cache

Since:

1.0

Method Detail

isReadThrough

boolean isReadThrough()

Determines if a Cache should operate in read-through mode.

When in read-through mode, cache misses that occur due to cache entries not existing as a result of performing a "get" call via one of Cache.get(Object), Cache.getAll(java.util.Set), Cache.getAndRemove(Object) and/or Cache.getAndReplace(Object, Object) will appropriately cause the configured CacheLoader to be invoked.

The default value is false.

Returns:

true when a Cache is in "read-through" mode.

CacheLoader

isWriteThrough

boolean isWriteThrough()

Determines if a Cache should operate in "write-through" mode.

When in "write-through" mode, cache updates that occur as a result of performing "put" operations called via one of Cache.put(Object, Object), Cache.getAndRemove(Object), Cache.removeAll(), Cache.getAndPut(Object, Object) Cache.getAndRemove(Object), Cache.getAndReplace(Object, Object), Cache#invokeEntryProcessor(Object, javax.cache.Cache.EntryProcessor) will appropriately cause the configured CacheWriter to be invoked.

The default value is false.

Returns:

true when a Cache is in "write-through" mode.

isStoreByValue

boolean isStoreByValue()

Whether storeByValue (true) or storeByReference (false). When true, both keys and values are stored by value.

When false, both keys and values are stored by reference. Caches stored by reference are capable of mutation by any threads holding the reference. The effects are:

• if the key is mutated, then the key may not be retrievable or removable
• if the value is mutated, then all threads in the JVM can potentially observe those mutations, subject to the normal Java Memory Model rules.

Storage by reference only applies to the local heap. If an entry is moved off heap it will need to be transformed into a representation. Any mutations that occur after transformation may not be reflected in the cache.

When a cache is storeByValue, any mutation to the key or value does not affect the key of value stored in the cache.

The default value is true.

Returns:

true if the cache is store by value

isStatisticsEnabled

boolean isStatisticsEnabled()

Checks whether statistics collection is enabled in this cache.

The default value is false.

Returns:

true if statistics collection is enabled

isManagementEnabled

boolean isManagementEnabled()

Checks whether management is enabled on this cache.

The default value is false.

Returns:

true if management is enabled

isTransactionsEnabled

boolean isTransactionsEnabled()

Checks whether transactions are enabled for this cache.

Note that in a transactional cache, entries being mutated within a transaction cannot be expired by the cache.

The default value is false.

Returns:

true if transaction are enabled

getTransactionIsolationLevel

IsolationLevel getTransactionIsolationLevel()

Gets the transaction isolation level.

The default value is IsolationLevel.NONE.

Returns:

the isolation level.

getTransactionMode

Mode getTransactionMode()

Gets the transaction mode.

The default value is Mode.NONE.

Returns:

the the mode of the cache.
