EventListener

All Known Subinterfaces:

CacheEntryCreatedListener<K,V>, CacheEntryExpiredListener<K,V>, CacheEntryReadListener<K,V>, CacheEntryRemovedListener<K,V>, CacheEntryUpdatedListener<K,V>

public interface CacheEntryListener
extends EventListener

Tagging interface for cache entry listeners.

Sub-interfaces exist for the various cache events allowing a listener to be created which implements only those listeners it is interested in.

The motivation for this design is to allow efficient implementation of network based listenrs.

Listeners should be implemented with care. In particular it is important to consider the impact on perforamnce and latency.
