All Implemented Interfaces:

Plugin, ElementMatcher<TypeDescription>

public class CachedReturnPlugin
extends Plugin.ForElementMatcher

A plugin that caches the return value of a method in a synthetic field. The caching mechanism is not thread-safe but can be used in a concurrent setup if the cached value is frozen, i.e. only defines final fields. In this context, it is possible that the method is executed multiple times by different threads but at the same time, this approach avoids a volatile field declaration. For methods with a primitive return type, the type's default value is used to indicate that a method was not yet invoked. For methods that return a reference type, null is used as an indicator. If a method returns such a value, this mechanism will not work.
