Properties

These are the available properties of the CacheConfiguration type. The names are used accordingly in the external configuration files. They can be found as constants in CacheConfigurationPropertyNames.

Property	Description
keyType	Determines the required type of keys for the Cache.
valueType	Determines the required type of values for the Cache.
storageConfigurationResourceName	Path for the storage configuration for the backing store.
cacheLoaderFactory	A CacheLoader should be configured for "Read Through" caches to load values when a cache miss occurs.
cacheWriterFactory	A CacheWriter is used for write-through to an external resource.
expiryPolicyFactory	Determines when cache entries will expire based on creation, access and modification operations.
evictionManagerFactory	Clears cache entries using a policy. Works interval-based or on entry creation.
readThrough	When in "read-through" mode, cache misses that occur due to cache entries not existing as a result of performing a "get" will appropriately cause the configured CacheLoader to be invoked.
writeThrough	When in "write-through" mode, cache updates that occur as a result of performing "put" operations will appropriately cause the configured CacheWriter to be invoked.
storeByValue	When a cache is storeByValue, any mutation to the key or value does not affect the key of value stored in the cache.
statisticsEnabled	Checks whether statistics collection is enabled in this cache.
managementEnabled	Checks whether management is enabled on this cache.
