Description

Make Ehcache interfaces use Java 1.5 generics. Might be some interesting compound type signatures on the Serializable methods but I’m sure we can make it work.

As a loosy workaround, I implemented two classes:

• ”{{CacheWrapper<K,V> implements StoreListener}}” which uses a {{Cache}} delegate
• ”{{ElementWrapper<K,V> implements Serializable, Cloneable}}” which uses an {{Element}} delegate

Then I can use code such as:

CacheWrapper<String,Integer> cache = new CacheWrapper(cacheManager.getCache("myCache"));
cache.put(new ElementWrapper<String,Integer>("one", 1));
Integer one = cache.get("one").getValue();
