## Class AbstractCache<K,V>

- java.lang.Object
- - com.google.common.cache.AbstractCache<K,V>

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Cache<K,V>
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    AbstractLoadingCache

      @GwtCompatible
      public abstract class AbstractCache<K,V>
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements Cache<K,V>

  This class provides a skeletal implementation of the `Cache` interface to minimize the effort required to implement this interface.

  To implement a cache, the programmer needs only to extend this class and provide an implementation for the `put(K, V)` and `Cache.getIfPresent(java.lang.Object)` methods. `getAllPresent(java.lang.Iterable<?>)` is implemented in terms of `Cache.getIfPresent(java.lang.Object)`; `putAll(java.util.Map<? extends K, ? extends V>)` is implemented in terms of `put(K, V)`, `invalidateAll(Iterable)` is implemented in terms of `invalidate(java.lang.Object)`. The method `cleanUp()` is a no-op. All other methods throw an `UnsupportedOperationException`.

  Since:
    10.0

  - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V>` | `asMap()` Returns a view of the entries stored in this cache as a thread-safe map.
    `void` | `cleanUp()` Performs any pending maintenance operations needed by the cache.
    `V` | `get(K key, java.util.concurrent.Callable<? extends V> valueLoader)` Returns the value associated with `key` in this cache, obtaining that value from `valueLoader` if necessary.
    `ImmutableMap<K,V>` | `getAllPresent(java.lang.Iterable<?> keys)` This implementation of `getAllPresent` lacks any insight into the internal cache data structure, and is thus forced to return the query keys instead of the cached keys.
    `void` | `invalidate(java.lang.Object key)` Discards any cached value for key `key`.
    `void` | `invalidateAll()` Discards all entries in the cache.
    `void` | `invalidateAll(java.lang.Iterable<?> keys)` Discards any cached values for keys `keys`.
    `void` | `put(K key, V value)` Associates `value` with `key` in this cache.
    `void` | `putAll(java.util.Map<? extends K,? extends V> m)` Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to the cache.
    `long` | `size()` Returns the approximate number of entries in this cache.
    `CacheStats` | `stats()` Returns a current snapshot of this cache's cumulative statistics.

    - #### get

          public V get(K key,
              java.util.concurrent.Callable<? extends V> valueLoader)
                throws java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Returns the value associated with `key` in this cache, obtaining that value from `valueLoader` if necessary. No observable state associated with this cache is modified until loading completes. This method provides a simple substitute for the conventional "if cached, return; otherwise create, cache and return" pattern.

      Warning: as with `CacheLoader.load(K)`, `valueLoader` must not return `null`; it may either return a non-null value or throw an exception.

      Specified by:
        `get` in interface `Cache<K,V>`
      Throws:
        `java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException` - if a checked exception was thrown while loading the value

        11.0

    - #### getAllPresent

          public ImmutableMap<K,V> getAllPresent(java.lang.Iterable<?> keys)

      This implementation of `getAllPresent` lacks any insight into the internal cache data structure, and is thus forced to return the query keys instead of the cached keys. This is only possible with an unsafe cast which requires `keys` to actually be of type `K`. Returns a map of the values associated with `keys` in this cache. The returned map will only contain entries which are already present in the cache.
      Specified by:
        `getAllPresent` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

        11.0

    - #### put

          public void put(K key,
                 V value)

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Associates `value` with `key` in this cache. If the cache previously contained a value associated with `key`, the old value is replaced by `value`.

      Prefer `Cache.get(Object, Callable)` when using the conventional "if cached, return; otherwise create, cache and return" pattern.

      Specified by:
        `put` in interface `Cache<K,V>`
      Since:
        11.0

    - #### putAll

          public void putAll(java.util.Map<? extends K,? extends V> m)

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to the cache. The effect of this call is equivalent to that of calling `put(k, v)` on this map once for each mapping from key `k` to value `v` in the specified map. The behavior of this operation is undefined if the specified map is modified while the operation is in progress.
      Specified by:
        `putAll` in interface `Cache<K,V>`
      Since:
        12.0

    - #### cleanUp

          public void cleanUp()

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Performs any pending maintenance operations needed by the cache. Exactly which activities are performed -- if any -- is implementation-dependent.
      Specified by:
        `cleanUp` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

    - #### size

          public long size()

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Returns the approximate number of entries in this cache.
      Specified by:
        `size` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

    - #### invalidate

          public void invalidate(java.lang.Object key)

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Discards any cached value for key `key`.
      Specified by:
        `invalidate` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

    - #### invalidateAll

          public void invalidateAll(java.lang.Iterable<?> keys)

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Discards any cached values for keys `keys`.
      Specified by:
        `invalidateAll` in interface `Cache<K,V>`
      Since:
        11.0

    - #### invalidateAll

          public void invalidateAll()

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Discards all entries in the cache.
      Specified by:
        `invalidateAll` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

    - #### stats

          public CacheStats stats()

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Returns a current snapshot of this cache's cumulative statistics. All stats are initialized to zero, and are monotonically increasing over the lifetime of the cache.
      Specified by:
        `stats` in interface `Cache<K,V>`

    - #### asMap

          public java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap<K,V> asMap()

      Description copied from interface: `Cache`
      Returns a view of the entries stored in this cache as a thread-safe map. Modifications made to the map directly affect the cache.

      Iterators from the returned map are at least weakly consistent: they are safe for concurrent use, but if the cache is modified (including by eviction) after the iterator is created, it is undefined which of the changes (if any) will be reflected in that iterator.

        `asMap` in interface `Cache<K,V>`
