I'm trying to use Spring Caching annotations @Cacheable
and @CacheEvict
together with the GuavaCacheManager.
I've created a test case with these two tests:
cachesById
- verifies that two invocations to a method annotatted with @Cacheable
returns the same objectevict
- verifies that two different instances are returned if a method annotated with @CacheEvict
is called in-between those two invocationsBoth work fine when i don't specify a key for @CacheEvict
, however when I do i get the following exception:
java.lang.NullPointerException

at com.myorg.caching.CacheTest.evict(CacheTest.java:50)
This can be reproduced by executing the below test.
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(
classes = { Repo.class, CacheTest.SpringConfig.class },
loader = AnnotationConfigContextLoader.class)
public class CacheTest {
private static final String CACHE_NAME = "cacheName";
@Inject
private Repo repo;
@Test
public void cachesById() {
Entity aResult1 = repo.getEntity(1);
Entity aResult2 = repo.getEntity(1);
assertEquals(aResult1.getId(), aResult2.getId());
assertSame(aResult1, aResult2);
}
@Test
public void evict() {
Entity aResult1 = repo.getEntity(1);
repo.update(aResult1);
Entity aResult2 = repo.getEntity(1);
assertEquals(aResult1.getId(), aResult2.getId());
assertNotSame(aResult1, aResult2);
}
/** Mock repository/entity classes below. */
@Component
public static class Repo {
@Cacheable(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public Entity getEntity(int id) {
return new Entity(id);
}
@CacheEvict(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public void update(Entity e) {
}
}
public static class Entity {
private int id;
public Entity(int id) {
super();
this.id = id;
}
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
}
/** Guava Cachemanager Spring configuration */
@Configuration
@EnableCaching
public static class SpringConfig {
@Bean
public CacheManager cacheManager() {
GuavaCacheManager manager = new GuavaCacheManager(CACHE_NAME);
manager.setCacheBuilder(CacheBuilder.newBuilder().expireAfterWrite(
1, TimeUnit.MINUTES).recordStats());
return manager;
}
}
}
However the test passes if I change
@CacheEvict(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public void update(Entity e) {
into:
@CacheEvict(value = CACHE_NAME)
public void update(Entity e) {
..but then I'm missing the point where I need to specify the cache key for Entity
. Does anyone know what I'm missing?
Thanks!
You have to fix you component class from
@Component
public static class Repo {
@Cacheable(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public Entity getEntity(int id) {
return new Entity(id);
}
@CacheEvict(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public void update(Entity e) {
}
}
to
@Component
public static class Repo {
@Cacheable(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#id")
public Entity getEntity(int id) {
return new Entity(id);
}
@CacheEvict(value = CACHE_NAME, key = "#e?.id")
public void update(Entity e) {
}
}
Why? In getEntity
method you're caching an Entity
object using int id
, you have to pass the same int id
into the @CacheEvict
annotated method. You don't have to change method's signature - by using SPEL you can "get into" entity and use its id field.
Hope I helped.
