CacheConfig (IBM WebSphere Application Server, Release 8.5)

```
public interface CacheConfig
```
This interface is used to provide the cache instance configuration to a cache provider. This configuration is provided to the CacheProvider via the CacheProvider.createCache(CacheConfig) method.

Since:

WAS 6.1.0.27

Nested Class Summary

Nested Classes
Modifier and Type	Interface and Description
`static class`	`CacheConfig.EvictorAlgorithmType` Eviction algorithm type EvictorAlgorithmType.LRUEvictor is defined as an evictor type that uses a least recently used algorithm to decide which entries to evict when the cache entries map exceeds a maximum number of entries.

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`java.lang.String`	`getCacheName()` Returns the name of cache instance.
`CacheConfig.EvictorAlgorithmType`	`getEvictorAlgorithmType()` Returns the type of evictor algorithm.
`int`	`getHighThresholdCacheSizeInMB()` Returns the high threshold in percentage of JVM heap space that can be occupied by the cache entries.
`int`	`getLowThresholdCacheSizeInMB()` Returns the low threshold in percentage of JVM heap space that can be occupied by the cache entries.
`long`	`getMaxCacheSize()` Returns the maximum number of cache entries allowed in the memory.
`long`	`getMaxCacheSizeInMB()` Returns the maximum space on the JVM heap that can be occupied by the cache entries.
`java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String>`	`getProperties()` Returns additional properties configured for the cacheinstance via the WebSphere admin console, wsadmin, the cacheinstances.properties file or the DistributedObjectCacheFactory.getMap(String name, Properties properties) API.
`boolean`	`isDistributed()` Indicates if this cache is meant to be distributed across the server instances of the cache provider.
