Clean Hibernate Second Level Cache

[repkin]

Hi,

I am using Hibernate 3.3.1 and JBoss Cache 2.1.1 as second level cache. My application is Cluster-Wide structured and I have configured multi regions. I want to clean cache manually. I dont know am I doing it right way, but it is working. Is this code true for cleaning cache?

Map<String, Region> allSecondLevelCacheRegions = ((SessionFactoryImpl)sessionFactory).getAllSecondLevelCacheRegions();
Collection<Region> cacheRegions = allSecondLevelCacheRegions.values();
for (Region region : cacheRegions) {
 region.destroy();
}

If it is not true, can you give me any idea?

You should use the Hibernate API to evict the entries. Don't access the underlying cache directly.

I have evicted by "sessionFactory.evictEntity"

public void cleanSecondLevelCache(String[] entityNames){
 //entityName : com.package.name.ClassName
 for (String entityName : entityNames) {
 sessionFactory.evictEntity(entityName);
 }
}

Thanks for your suggestion.
