Method Detail

isExpired

public final boolean isExpired()

Returns:

true if the entry has expired; false otherwise

canExpire

public final boolean canExpire()

Returns:

true if the entry can expire, false otherwise

getCreated

public final long getCreated()

Returns:

timestamp when the entry was created

getLastUsed

public final long getLastUsed()

Returns:

timestamp when the entry was last used

getLifespan

public final long getLifespan()

Returns:

retrieves the lifespan of this entry. -1 means an unlimited lifespan.

getMaxIdle

public final long getMaxIdle()

Returns:

the maximum allowed time for which this entry can be idle, after which it is considered expired.

getExpiryTime

public final long getExpiryTime()

Description copied from interface: InternalCacheEntry

Only used with entries that have a lifespan, this determines when an entry is due to expire.

Returns:

timestamp when the entry is due to expire, or -1 if it doesn't have a lifespan

touch

public final void touch()

Description copied from interface: InternalCacheEntry

Updates access timestamps on this instance

reincarnate

public final void reincarnate()

Description copied from interface: InternalCacheEntry

"Reincarnates" an entry. Essentially, resets the 'created' timestamp of the entry to the current time.

toInternalCacheValue

public InternalCacheValue toInternalCacheValue()

Description copied from interface: InternalCacheEntry

Creates a representation of this entry as an InternalCacheValue. The main purpose of this is to provide a representation that does not have a reference to the key. This is useful in situations where the key is already known or stored elsewhere, making serialization and deserialization more efficient.

Note that this should not be used to optimize memory overhead, since the saving of an additional reference to a key (a single object reference) does not warrant the cost of constructing an InternalCacheValue. This only makes sense when marshalling is involved, since the cost of marshalling the key again can be sidestepped using an InternalCacheValue if the key is already known/marshalled.

Returns:

a new InternalCacheValue encapsulating this InternalCacheEntry's value and expiration information.

getValue

public Object getValue()

Description copied from interface: CacheEntry

Retrieves the value of this entry

Returns:

the value of the entry

setValue

public Object setValue(Object value)

Description copied from interface: CacheEntry

Sets the value of the entry, returing the previous value

Parameters:

value - value to set

Returns:

previous value
