Infinispan with WildFly 8 cache-container

[zerocool782]

I have been trying to configure a standalone.xml to have create my own cache with the following stub under <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:infinispan:2.0">:

<cache-container name="myCache" default-cache="dist" start="EAGER">

                <local-cache name="myCacheDb" start="EAGER"/>

</cache-container>

The main problem is when I create my java class to inject the cache the container is always null. What is the proper way to way to initialize the container so that I can used it for basic caching.

Below is my java class:

import javax.annotation.Resource;

import org.infinispan.manager.CacheContainer;

public class CacheContainerTest {

  @Resource(lookup = "java:jboss/infinispan/container/myCache")

  private org.infinispan.manager.CacheContainer container;

  public CacheContainerTest getContainer() {

  return container;

  }

}

In another java class:

CacheContainerTest cct = new CacheContainerTest();

org.infinispan.manager.CacheContainer cc = cct.getContainer();               //cc is null

Cache<String, Object> cache = c.getCache();

Any help would be very much appreciate.

Hey Robert,

It is unclear how do you deploy this application? A good start is https://github.com/infinispan/infinispan-quickstart/tree/master/jboss-as7

I would follow that example. Don't worry that it is as7 quickstart, it should work in Wildfly.

Regards,

Vladimir

Thanks, I finally got it to work. The main issue was making sure the dependencies were correct. Also cache = (Cache) new InitialContext().lookup("java:module/myCache"); was the correct way to instantiate the cache which was hard to find in the documentation.
