Introduction
Spring 1.1.1 introduced integration for EHCache for general cache use.
I will show here a sample Interceptor that allows for declarative caching of methods results.
Configure EHCache using Spring IoC
Spring makes EHCache configuration very easy. All you need, is to provide a ehcache.xml file where you configure EHCache regions:
<ehcache>
<!-- Sets the path to the directory where cache .data files are created.
If the path is a Java System Property it is replaced by
its value in the running VM.
The following properties are translated:
user.home - User's home directory
user.dir - User's current working directory
java.io.tmpdir - Default temp file path -->
<diskStore path="java.io.tmpdir"/>
<!--Default Cache configuration. These will applied to caches programmatically created through
the CacheManager.
The following attributes are required for defaultCache:
maxInMemory - Sets the maximum number of objects that will be created in memory
eternal - Sets whether elements are eternal. If eternal, timeouts are ignored and the element
is never expired.
timeToIdleSeconds - Sets the time to idle for an element before it expires.
i.e. The maximum amount of time between accesses before an element expires
Is only used if the element is not eternal.
Optional attribute. A value of 0 means that an Element can idle for infinity
timeToLiveSeconds - Sets the time to live for an element before it expires.
i.e. The maximum time between creation time and when an element expires.
Is only used if the element is not eternal.
overflowToDisk - Sets whether elements can overflow to disk when the in-memory cache
has reached the maxInMemory limit.
-->
<cache name="org.taha.cache.METHOD_CACHE"
maxElementsInMemory="300"
eternal="false"
timeToIdleSeconds="500"
timeToLiveSeconds="500"
overflowToDisk="true"
/>
</ehcache>Our Interceptor will use region "org.taha.cache.METHOD_CACHE" to cache methods results.
Now we will use some Spring IoC to make this region accessible to our beans:
<!-- ============================== CACHE ============================= -->
<bean id="cacheManager" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="configLocation">
<value>classpath:ehcache.xml</value>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="methodCache" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheFactoryBean">
<property name="cacheManager">
<ref local="cacheManager"/>
</property>
<property name="cacheName">
<value>org.taha.cache.METHOD_CACHE</value>
</property>
</bean>Bean methodCache creates cache region org.taha.cache.METHOD_CACHE.
Creating our MethodCacheInterceptor
The interceptor implements org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInterceptor. Whenever it kicks-in, it first checks if the intercepted method is configured to be cached. This allows to selectively configure bean methods for caching. If the method call is configured for caching, the interceptor builds the cache key for the method and checks if the method result is in the cache. If so, the cached result is returned, otherwise the intercepted method is called and the result cached for further use.

Using MethodCacheInterceptor
The following excerpt shows how to configure MethodCacheInterceptor:
<bean id="methodCacheInterceptor" class="org.taha.interceptor.MethodCacheInterceptor">
<property name="cache">
<ref local="methodCache" />
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="methodCachePointCut" class="org.springframework.aop.support.RegexpMethodPointcutAdvisor">

<bean class="org.taha.beans.MyBean"/>
</property>
<property name="interceptorNames">
<list>
<value>methodCachePointCut</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>Further improvements:
It will be very helpfull to add the following to MethodCacheInterceptor:
refactor the code so that the interceptor no longer depends on EHCache
add arguments to methods configuration:
<property name="methodNames">
<list>
<value>methodOne(java.lang.String, int)</value>
<value>methodOne(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)</value>
</list>
</property>add regular expressions to method configuration
<property name="methodNames">
<list>
<value>add*</value>
</list>
</property>Changes:
MethodCacheInterceptor now implements InitializingBean
removed property methodNames and setter setMethodNames(java.lang.String)
MethodCacheInterceptor can be configured using regular PointCutAdvisor
using org.springframework.util.Assert to eagerly check if property cache is not null
