AsyncCacheLoader.Context (cache2k API 2.1.3.Alpha API)

All Superinterfaces:

DataAware<K,V>

Enclosing interface:

AsyncCacheLoader<K,V>
```
public static interface AsyncCacheLoader.Context<K,V>
extends DataAware<K,V>
```
Relevant context information for a single load request.
Rationale: Instead of a rather long parameter list, we define an interface. This allows us later to add some information without breaking implementations of the AsyncCacheLoader. The context does not include the cache, since the loader should not depend on it and do any other operations on the cache while loading.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Cache<K,V>`	`getCache()`	The cache originating the load request
`CacheEntry<K,V>`	`getCurrentEntry()`	Current entry in the cache.
`Executor`	`getExecutor()`	The configured executor for async operations.
`K`	`getKey()`	Cache key for the load request.
`Executor`	`getLoaderExecutor()`	The configured loader executor.
`long`	`getStartTime()`	Time in millis since epoch of start of load operation

- Method Detail
  - getCache
```
Cache<K,V> getCache()
```
    The cache originating the load request
  - getStartTime
```
long getStartTime()
```
    Time in millis since epoch of start of load operation
  - getKey
```
K getKey()
```
    Cache key for the load request. Although the key is a call parameter it is repeated here, so users can choose to pass on the key or the whole context.
  - getExecutor
```
Executor getExecutor()
```
    The configured executor for async operations.
    
    See Also:
    
    Cache2kBuilder.executor(Executor)
  - getLoaderExecutor
```
Executor getLoaderExecutor()
```
    The configured loader executor.
    
    See Also:
    
    Cache2kBuilder.loaderExecutor(Executor)
  - getCurrentEntry
```
CacheEntry<K,V> getCurrentEntry()
```
    Current entry in the cache. The entry is available if the load is caused by a reload or refresh. If expired before, null is returned. If Cache2kBuilder.keepDataAfterExpired(boolean) is enabled, also an expired entry is provided to the loader for optimization purposes. See also the description of Cache2kBuilder.keepDataAfterExpired(boolean) and Cache2kBuilder.refreshAhead(boolean).
