How to Expire Objects in JBoss Cache with Time Interval

[ramesh373]

Hi ,

I want to expire an Object stored in JBoss cache without calling explicitly the cache.remove method.

Is there any way we can set the timeline in JBoss cache on a particular object. Say Im storing an object in the JBoss cache and I need it to be removed from the cache after 2 hours.

I looked in to the cache.put() menthod and we are not setting the expiry deadline there.

Thanks in advance.

Look at the eviction policy and how to configure it.

hi , Thanks for your reply.
So , I have the cache-config xml file where i can set the expiry time interval for that particular Object right !!!



5
<!-- Cache wide default -->

5
1000




Is the attribute timeToIdleSeconds give the Lifespan of object in JBoss Cache?
Or is there any element which mentions.

Also, where can i find the documentation of this particular info.

Thanks
Ramesh
