Interface BackupAwareEntryProcessor<K,V,T>

Type Parameters:

K - the type of keys maintained by this cache

V - the type of cached values

T - the type of the return value

All Superinterfaces:

javax.cache.processor.EntryProcessor<K,V,T>

public interface BackupAwareEntryProcessor<K,V,T>
extends javax.cache.processor.EntryProcessor<K,V,T>

An invocable function that allows applications to perform compound operations on a Cache.Entry atomically, according the defined consistency of a Cache.

In difference to the normal EntryProcessor implementations where a backup is done using sending the complete changed resulting object to the backup-partition, implementations of this sub-interface can create an additional EntryProcessor instances that are send to the backup-partitions to apply logic which is either different from the owner partition (e.g. not sending emails) or in the simple case similar to the main operations. In the later case createBackupEntryProcessor() can also return

Method Detail

createBackupEntryProcessor

javax.cache.processor.EntryProcessor<K,V,T> createBackupEntryProcessor()

Either creates a new, specialized EntryProcessor to be executed on the backup-partition or returns

this

to execute the same processor remotely.

If null is returned the value is backed up using the normal value backup mechanism, non exception is thrown and the update is applied as expected.

Returns:

the backup-partition EntryProcessor
