Class CacheFactory

java.lang.Object
org.jivesoftware.util.cache.CacheFactory

public class CacheFactory extends Object
Creates Cache objects. The returned caches will either be local or clustered depending on the clustering enabled setting and a user's license.

When clustered caching is turned on, cache usage statistics for all caches that have been created are periodically published to the clustered cache named "opt-$cacheStats".

    • createCache

      public static <T extends Cache> T createCache(String name)
      Returns the named cache, creating it as necessary.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the type cache being created
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the cache to create.
      Returns:
      the named cache, creating it as necessary.
    • createSerializingCache

      public static <T extends Cache> T createSerializingCache(String name, Class keyClass, Class valueClass)
      Returns the serializing cache, creating it as necessary. Unlike the caches returned by createCache(String), the caches returned by this method store data in serialized form (without a reference to their class). The primary benefit of usage of this cache is that the cached data is stored without any references to their classes. This allows cache content to remain usable after the classes that instantiate the data get reloaded. This is of particular interest when the cache is used to store data provided by Openfire plugins (as these classes get loaded by a class loader that is replaced when a plugin gets reloaded or upgraded). It is important for a Cache that uses class definitions loaded by a plugin to be 'dereferenced' when the plugin that provided the class definitions get unloaded (failing to do so will cause ClassCastExceptions, when a new version of the same plugin gets loaded). For this, dereferenceSerializingCache(String) can be used. To (re)register class definitions with the cache, this #createSerializingCache method can be used. When the cache pre-exists, it will set (or overwrite) the registered class definitions. As compared to other caches, usage of this cache will require more system resources, as the serialized representation of an object typically is (much) larger than its original (unserialized) form.
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the cache to create.
      keyClass - The class of instances used as keys.
      valueClass - The class of instances used as values.
      Returns:
      the named cache, creating it as necessary.
      See Also:
    • dereferenceSerializingCache

      public static void dereferenceSerializingCache(String name)
      Removes the class definitions from a SerializingCache, if a cache exists with the provided name (and that cache is a SerializingCache). This method should be invoked when a plugin that provided the class definitions gets unloaded. If this method is not invoked, the Plugin Class Loader will retain references (and thus not be garbage collected). This will cause ClassCastExceptions when a new/reloaded version of the plugin starts interacting with the cache. A cache for which this method is used does not get destroyed (all data is retained per the cache configuration). However, the cache cannot be interacted with (as data in the cache cannot be serialized/deserialized). To restore functionality, createSerializingCache(String, Class, Class) is to be used. This will re-register class definitions for existing caches (or create a new cache, if one doesn't exist).
      Parameters:
      name - The name of the cache.
    • createLocalCache

      public static <T extends Cache> T createLocalCache(String name)
      Returns the named local cache, creating it as necessary.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the type cache being created
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the cache to create.
      Returns:
      the named cache, creating it as necessary.
    • destroyCache

      public static void destroyCache(String name)
      Destroys the cache for the cache name specified.
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the cache to destroy.
    • isClusteringAvailable

      public static boolean isClusteringAvailable()
      Returns true if clustering is installed and can be used by this JVM to join a cluster. A false value could mean that either clustering support is not available or the license does not allow to have more than 1 cluster node.
      Returns:
      true if clustering is installed and can be used by this JVM to join a cluster.
    • isClusteringStarting

      public static boolean isClusteringStarting()
      Returns true is clustering is currently being started. Once the cluster is started or failed to be started this value will be false.
      Returns:
      true is clustering is currently being started.
    • isClusteringStarted

      public static boolean isClusteringStarted()
      Returns true if this node is currently a member of a cluster. The last step of application initialization is to join a cluster, so this method returns false during most of application startup.
      Returns:
      true if this node is currently a member of a cluster.
    • getClusterMemberID

      public static byte[] getClusterMemberID()
      Returns a byte[] that uniquely identifies this member within the cluster or null when not in a cluster.

    • getSeniorClusterMemberID

      public static byte[] getSeniorClusterMemberID()
      Returns a byte[] that uniquely identifies this senior cluster member or null when not in a cluster.
      Returns:
      a byte[] that uniquely identifies this senior cluster member or null when not in a cluster.
    • isSeniorClusterMember

      public static boolean isSeniorClusterMember()
      Returns true if this member is the senior member in the cluster. If clustering is not enabled, this method will also return true. This test is useful for tasks that should only be run on a single member in a cluster.
      Returns:
      true if this cluster member is the senior or if clustering is not enabled.
    • getClusterNodesInfo

      public static Collection<ClusterNodeInfo> getClusterNodesInfo()
      Returns basic information about the current members of the cluster or an empty collection if not running in a cluster.
      Returns:
      information about the current members of the cluster or an empty collection if not running in a cluster.
    • getMaxClusterNodes

      public static int getMaxClusterNodes()
      Returns the maximum number of cluster members allowed. A value of 0 will be returned when clustering is not allowed.

      the maximum number of cluster members allowed or 0 if clustering is not allowed.
    • getClusterTime

      public static long getClusterTime()
      Gets the pseudo-synchronized time from the cluster. While the cluster members may have varying system times, this method is expected to return a timestamp that is synchronized (or nearly so; best effort) across the cluster.
      Returns:
      Synchronized time for all cluster members
    • doClusterTask

      public static void doClusterTask(ClusterTask<?> task)

    • doClusterTask

      public static void doClusterTask(ClusterTask<?> task, byte[] nodeID)

      Parameters:
      task - the task to be invoked on the specified cluster member.
      nodeID - the byte array that identifies the target cluster member.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if requested node was not found or not running in a cluster.

      public static <T> Collection<T> doSynchronousClusterTask(ClusterTask<T> task, boolean includeLocalMember)
      Invokes a task on other cluster members synchronously and returns the result as a Collection (method will not return until the task has been executed on each cluster member). The task will not be executed on the local cluster member. If clustering is not enabled, this method will return an empty collection.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the return type of the cluster task
      Parameters:
      task - the ClusterTask object to be invoked on all other cluster members.

      public static <T> T doSynchronousClusterTask(ClusterTask<T> task, byte[] nodeID)
      Invokes a task on a given cluster member synchronously and returns the result of the remote operation. If clustering is not enabled, this method will return null.
