Interface CacheNameResolver

All Known Implementing Classes:

TokenizerCacheNameResolver

public interface CacheNameResolver

This interface expresses the concept that the name(s) of cache keys that need to be flushed can be coded and need to be processed before the cache(s) can be flushed. You can think about a http request parameter containing any number of cache keys that need to be split up in a specific way. At least on of the getNames() menthods need to be implemented. If one is not implemented it should throw a UnsupportedOperationException
