Method Detail

isSuccessful

boolean isSuccessful()

Some commands may want to provide information on whether the command was successful or not. This is different from a failure, which usually would result in an exception being thrown. An example is a putIfAbsent() not doing anything because the key in question was present. This would result in a isSuccessful() call returning false.

Returns:

true if the command completed successfully, false otherwise.

isConditional

boolean isConditional()

Certain commands only work based on a certain condition or state of the cache. For example, ConcurrentMap.putIfAbsent(Object, Object) only does anything if a condition is met, i.e., the entry in question is not already present. This method tests whether the command in question is conditional or not.

Returns:

true if the command is conditional, false otherwise

getAffectedKeys

Set<Object> getAffectedKeys()

Returns:

a collection of keys affected by this write command. Some commands - such as ClearCommand - may return an empty collection for this method.
