Hi all,
I have implemented a couple of endpoint with REST
Builder which expose data fetched from an external
datasource.
Since the data don't change very often, I would like
to enable caching, so I injected a singleVMPool within my component
@Reference
private SingleVMPool _singleVMPool;
private static PortalCache<String, List<Building>> _portalCache;
and then in its initialization method (marked with @Activate) I added
something like:
_portalCache = (PortalCache<String, List<MyObject>>) _singleVMPool.getPortalCache("MyCache");
After that I properly configured cache in XML
<ehcache dynamicConfig="true" monitoring="off"
name="module-single-vm" updateCheck="false"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.ehcache.org/ehcache.xsd">
<cache eternal="false" maxElementsInMemory="10000"
name="MyCache" overflowToDisk="false"
timeToIdleSeconds="600">
</cache>
</ehcache>
The problem is that the component has been created automatically by
REST Builder and is marked as "scope =
ServiceScope.PROTOTYPE"
This means that at each requests, a
new instance of the component will be created and hence a new cache
will be initialized: what happens at the end is that my cache is
always empty.
Is it possible to avoid marking REST Builder component as scope =
ServiceScope.PROTOTYPE? Or shall I configure cache in a different way?
