> When building an LDAP IAuthenticator plugin I ran into a few issues when
> trying to reuse the AuthCache similar to how PasswordAuthenticator implements
> it. Most of the problems stemmed from the underlying cache being inaccessible
> and not being able to override {{initCache}} properly.
> Anyway, I've had a stab at refactoring AuthCache with the following
> improvements:
> # Make it possible to extend and override all necessary methods (initCache,
> init, validate)
> # Makes it possible to specify a {{CacheLoader}} rather than just a
> {{Function}}, allowing you to have a get/load that throws exceptions.
> # Use AuthCache on its own rather than extending it for each use case
> ({{invalidate(K)}} moved to be part of MBean)
> # Provided a builder that uses sane defaults so we don't have unnecessary
> repeated code everywhere
> The refactor made all the extensions of AuthCache unnecessary, so I've
> simplified those cases to use AuthCache and removed any classes extending
> AuthCache. I also removed some noop compatibility classes that were marked to
> be removed in 4.0.
> Also added some tests in AuthCacheTest.
