public class ConcurrentCache<T> extends ConcurrentHashMap<Object,T> implements Cache<T>
The ConcurrentCache interface is used to represent a cache that will store key value pairs. This implementation is backed by a ConcurrentHashMap for best performance.

      public ConcurrentCache()
      Constructor for the ConcurrentCache object. This is an implementation of a cache that uses the conventional concurrent hash map from the Java collections API.
  • Method Details

    • cache

      public void cache(Object key, T value)
      This method is used to insert a key value mapping in to the cache. The value can later be retrieved or removed from the cache if desired. If the value associated with the key is null then nothing is stored within the cache.
      Specified by:
      cache in interface Cache<T>
      Parameters:
      key - this is the key to cache the provided value to
      value - this is the value that is to be cached
    • take

      public T take(Object key)
      This is used to exclusively take the value mapped to the specified key from the cache. Invoking this is effectively removing the value from the cache.
      Specified by:
      take in interface Cache<T>
      Parameters:
      key - this is the key to acquire the cache value with
      Returns:
      this returns the value mapped to the specified key
    • fetch

      public T fetch(Object key)
      This method is used to get the value from the cache that is mapped to the specified key. If there is no value mapped to the specified key then this method will return a null.
      Specified by:
      fetch in interface Cache<T>
      Parameters:
      key - this is the key to acquire the cache value with
      Returns:
      this returns the value mapped to the specified key
    • contains

      public boolean contains(Object key)
      This is used to determine whether the specified key exists with in the cache. Typically this can be done using the fetch method, which will acquire the object.
      Specified by:
      contains in interface Cache<T>
      Overrides:
      contains in class ConcurrentHashMap<Object,T>
      Parameters:
      key - this is the key to check within this segment
      Returns:
      true if the specified key is within the cache
