Method Detail

getAllCachedEntities

Map<Class<?>,Map<String,CachedEntity>> getAllCachedEntities()

Returns all cached Entity instances as a map with following structure: { entityClassName, {entityId, entity} }

put

CachedEntity put(Entity entity,
                 boolean storeState)

Adds the gives Entity to the cache.

Parameters:

entity - The Entity instance

storeState - If true, the current state Entity.getPersistentState() will be stored for future diffing. Note that, if false, the Entity will always be seen as changed.

Returns:

Returns a CachedEntity instance, which can be enriched later on.

findInCache

<T> T findInCache(Class<T> entityClass,
                  String id)

Returns the cached Entity instance of the given class with the provided id. Returns null if such a Entity cannot be found.

findInCache

<T> List<T> findInCache(Class<T> entityClass)

Returns all cached Entity instances of a given type. Returns an empty list if no instances of the given type exist.

findInCacheAsCachedObjects

<T> Collection<CachedEntity> findInCacheAsCachedObjects(Class<T> entityClass)

Returns all CachedEntity instances for the given type. The difference with findInCache(Class) is that here the whole CachedEntity is returned, which gives access to the persistent state at the moment of putting it in the cache.

cacheRemove

void cacheRemove(Class<?> entityClass,
                 String entityId)

Removes the Entity of the given type with the given id from the cache.
