JBoss API: Class CacheKey

Class CacheKey

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--org.jboss.ejb.CacheKey
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Externalizable, java.io.Serializable
Direct Known Subclasses:
FastKey

public class CacheKey
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Externalizable

CacheKey CacheKey is an encapsulation of both the PrimaryKey and a cache specific key This implementation is a safer implementation in the sense that it doesn't rely on the user supplied hashcode and equals. It is also fast since the hashCode operation is pre-calculated.

Field Detail

id

protected java.lang.Object id

mo

protected java.rmi.MarshalledObject mo

hashCode

protected int hashCode
Constructor Detail

CacheKey

public CacheKey()

CacheKey

public CacheKey(java.lang.Object id)
Method Detail

getId

public java.lang.Object getId()

writeExternal

public void writeExternal(java.io.ObjectOutput out)
                   throws java.io.IOException
Specified by:
writeExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

readExternal

public void readExternal(java.io.ObjectInput in)
                  throws java.io.IOException,
                         java.lang.ClassNotFoundException
Specified by:
readExternal in interface java.io.Externalizable

hashCode

public int hashCode()
these should be overwritten by extending Cache key since they define what the cache does in the first place
Overrides:
hashCode in class java.lang.Object

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)
This method uses the id implementation of equals if the mo is null since this indicates that the id class did implement equals. If mo is not null, then the MarshalledObject equals is used to compare keys based on their serialized form. Relying on the serialized form does not always work.
Overrides:
equals in class java.lang.Object

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Overrides:
toString in class java.lang.Object
