public interface Store<K,V>
extends ConfigurationChangeSupport

The Service Provider Interface is what a Cache instance requires to be able to store Cache entries (i.e. mappings of key to value, including all metadata). It is basically a ConcurrentMap with built in eviction/expiration. Possibly, it represents a view on data held on some persistent and/or remote storage.

Method Detail

get

Store.ValueHolder<V> get(K key)
                         throws CacheAccessException
Returns the ValueHolder to which the specified key is mapped, or null if this store contains no mapping for the key or if it was evicted (or became expired) since it was initially installed.

More formally, if this store contains a non-expired mapping from a key k to a ValueHolder v such that key.equals(k), then this method returns v; otherwise it returns null. (There can be at most one such mapping.)

Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified key is null
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key is not an instance of K
CacheAccessException - if the mapping can't be retrieved

containsKey

boolean containsKey(K key)
                    throws CacheAccessException
Returns true if this store contains the specified key and the entry is not expired. More formally, returns true if and only if this store contains a key k such that (o.equals(k)).

Parameters:
key - key whose presence in this store is to be tested
Returns:
true if this store contains the specified non-expired element
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified key is null
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key is not an instance of K
CacheAccessException - if the presence can't be tested for

put

void put(K key,
         V value)
         throws CacheAccessException
Maps the specified key to the specified value in this store. Neither the key nor the value can be null.

The ValueHolder can be retrieved by calling the get method with a key that is equal to the original key.

Parameters:
key - key with which the specified value is to be associated
value - value to be associated with the specified key
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified key or value is null
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key or value are not of the correct types (K or V)
CacheAccessException - if the mapping can't be installed

putIfAbsent

Store.ValueHolder<V> putIfAbsent(K key,
                                 V value)
                                 throws CacheAccessException
Maps the specified key to the specified value in this store, unless a non-expired mapping already exists. This is equivalent to
   if (!store.containsKey(key))
       store.put(key, value);
       return null;
   else
       return store.get(key);
except that the action is performed atomically. The ValueHolder can be retrieved by calling the get method with a key that is equal to the original key.

Neither the key nor the value can be null.

Parameters:
key - key with which the specified value is to be associated
value - value to be associated with the specified key
Returns:
the ValueHolder to which the specified key was previously mapped, or null if no such mapping existed or the mapping was expired
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified key or value is null
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key or value are not of the correct types (K or V)
CacheAccessException - if the mapping can't be installed

remove

void remove(K key)
            throws CacheAccessException

Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified key is null
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key is not an instance of K
CacheAccessException - if the mapping can't be removed

remove

boolean remove(K key,
               V value)
               throws CacheAccessException
Removes the entry for a key only if currently mapped to a given value and the entry is not expired This is equivalent to
   if (store.containsKey(key) && store.get(key).equals(value)) {
       store.remove(key);
       return true;
   } else return false;
except that the action is performed atomically.

Parameters:
key - key with which the specified value is associated
value - value expected to be associated with the specified key

                             V value)
                             throws CacheAccessException
Replaces the entry for a key only if currently mapped to some value and the entry is not expired. This is equivalent to
   V oldValue = store.get(key);
   if (oldValue != null) {
     map.put(key, value);
   }
   return oldValue; 
except that the action is performed atomically.

bulkCompute

java.util.Map<K,Store.ValueHolder<V>> bulkCompute(java.util.Set<? extends K> keys,
                                                  Function<java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<? extends K,? extends V>>,java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<? extends K,? extends V>>> remappingFunction)
                                                  throws CacheAccessException
Compute a value for every key passed in the Set keys argument, using the remappingFunction to compute the value.

This is equivalent to calling bulkCompute(Set, Function, NullaryFunction) with a "replaceEquals" function that returns Boolean.TRUE

Throws:
CacheAccessException

bulkCompute

java.util.Map<K,Store.ValueHolder<V>> bulkCompute(java.util.Set<? extends K> keys,
                                                  Function<java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<? extends K,? extends V>>,java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<? extends K,? extends V>>> remappingFunction,
                                                  NullaryFunction<java.lang.Boolean> replaceEqual)
                                                  throws CacheAccessException
Compute a value for every key passed in the Set keys argument, using the remappingFunction to compute the value.

The function gets an Iterable of Map.Entry key/value pairs, where each entry's value is its currently stored value, or null if nothing is stored under the key. It is expected that the function returns an Iterable of Map.Entry key/value pairs containing an entry for each key that was passed to it. This returned Iterable should also iterate in the same order as the input Iterable. If an entry's value is null, its mapping will be removed from the store.

The function may be called multiple times per bulkCompute call, depending on how the store wants or does not want to batch computations. Note: This method guarantees atomicity of computations for each individual key in keys. Implementations may choose to provide coarser grained atomicity.

Parameters:
keys - the keys to compute a new value for.
remappingFunction - the function that generates new values.
replaceEqual - If the existing value in the store is Object.equals(Object) to the value returned from the mappingFunction this function will be invoked. If this function returns Boolean.FALSE then the existing entry in the store will not be replaced with a new entry and the existing entry will have its access time updated
Returns:
a Map of key/value pairs for each key in keys to the value computed.
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key(s) are not of the correct type (K). Also thrown if the given function produces entries with either incorrect key or value types
CacheAccessException

bulkComputeIfAbsent

java.util.Map<K,Store.ValueHolder<V>> bulkComputeIfAbsent(java.util.Set<? extends K> keys,
                                                          Function<java.lang.Iterable<? extends K>,java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.util.Map.Entry<? extends K,? extends V>>> mappingFunction)
                                                          throws CacheAccessException
Compute a value for every key passed in the Set keys argument using the mappingFunction to compute the value. The function gets an Iterable of Map.Entry key/value pairs, where each entry's value is its currently stored value for each key that is not mapped in the store. It is expected that the function returns an Iterable of Map.Entry key/value pairs containing an entry for each key that was passed to it. This returned Iterable should also iterate in the same order as the input Iterable. The function may be called multiple times per bulkComputeIfAbsent call, depending on how the store wants or does not want to batch computations. Note: This method guarantees atomicity of computations for each individual key in keys. Implementations may choose to provide coarser grained atomicity.

Parameters:
keys - the keys to compute a new value for, if they're not in the store.
mappingFunction - the function that generates new values.
Returns:
a Map of key/value pairs for each key in keys to the previously missing value.
Throws:
java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified key(s) are not of the correct type (K). Also thrown if the given function produces entries with either incorrect key or value types
CacheAccessException
