Support for JSR-107 caching annotations [SPR-9616]

[spring-projects-issues]

Edwin Stang opened SPR-9616 and commented

Background

Support for JCache (JSR-107) was added to Spring in conjunction with #13417.

Status Quo

Right now, I am successfully using JCache with the Spring cache annotations (org.springframework.cache.annotation.*) with AspectJ.

Goals

To be more specification conform, I would like to switch to the JCache annotations (javax.cache.annotation.*), but AnnotationCacheAspect in the spring-aspects module does not support this.

Would it be possible to have this included in Spring 3.2?

Hi Edwin,

We'll be providing full JCache support in the next generation of Spring in 2013, once the JSR-107 specification has been finalized. At this point it's not yet clear how stable the design of those standardized caching annotations in JCache 0.5 is, so we're waiting for the final specification before doing a larger investment there.

Hope that helps,

Juergen

The JSR-107 annotations support is almost done now and is available from the jsr-107 branch. There is still one outstanding issue with AspectJ and the exception management that JSR-107 provides. Working on it...

I flag this one as complete as the last outstanding AspectJ issue has just been fixed. Documentation update will follow shortly.
