      • contains

        public boolean contains​(K key)
        Specified by:
        contains in interface SimpleCache<K extends Serializable,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - the cache key to check up on
        Returns:
        Returns true if there is a cache entry, regardless of whether the value itself is null
      • get

        public V get​(K key)
        Specified by:
        get in interface SimpleCache<K extends Serializable,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - K
        Returns:
        Returns the value associated with the key. It will be null if the value is null or if the cache doesn't have an entry.
      • put

        public void put​(K key,
                        V value)
        Description copied from interface: SimpleCache
        Set the value to store for a given key.

        Be sure to use remove if cache entries need to be removed as the cache implementations must treat a null value as a first class object in exactly the same way as a Map will allow storage and retrieval of null values.

        Specified by:
        put in interface SimpleCache<K extends Serializable,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - the key against which to store the value
        value - the value to store. null is allowed.
      • remove

        public void remove​(K key)
        Description copied from interface: SimpleCache
        Removes the cache entry whether or not the value stored against it is null.
        Specified by:
        remove in interface SimpleCache<K extends Serializable,​V>
        Parameters:
        key - the key value to remove
