Enum CacheManagerFactory

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Enum<CacheManagerFactory>
      javax.cache.CacheManagerFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<CacheManagerFactory>

public enum CacheManagerFactory
extends Enum<CacheManagerFactory>

A factory for creating CacheManagers using the SPI conventions in the JDK's ServiceLoader For a provider to be discovered by the CacheManagerFactory, it's jar must contain a resource called:

   META-INF/services/javax.cache.spi.CacheManagerFactoryProvider
 

containing the class name implementing CacheManagerFactoryProvider e.g. For the reference implementation: "javax.cache.implementation.RIServiceFactory" The CacheManagerFactory also keeps track of all CacheManagers created by the factory. Subsequent calls to getCacheManager() return the same CacheManager.

1.7

Method Detail

values

public static CacheManagerFactory[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (CacheManagerFactory c : CacheManagerFactory.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static CacheManagerFactory valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getCacheManager

public CacheManager getCacheManager()

Get the default cache manager. The default cache manager is named DEFAULT_CACHE_MANAGER_NAME

Returns:

the default cache manager

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if no CacheManagerFactoryProvider was found

getCacheManager

public CacheManager getCacheManager(String name)

Get a named cache manager. The first time a name is used, the cache manager will be created. Subsequent calls will return the same cache manager.

Parameters:

name - the name of this cache manager

Returns:

the new cache manager

Throws:

NullPointerException - if name is null

IllegalStateException - if no CacheManagerFactoryProvider was found
