Ah, yes, I understand that.
But you do not want a clear() call to automatically repopulate. You
only repopulate when the item is needed again. Otherwise, the original
clear call didn't really have any affect(ie, for reducing memory).
Good point.
Other classes could do the same thing in the cases where using UtilCache
would be dangerous or undesirable.
Well, if the 'cache' user can always recreate the values from the given
key, it's not really a problem; just additional load.
I was thinking it would be helpful from the Webtools perspective. There are so many things cached in
memory that can't be cleared unless OFBiz is restarted. In my scenario, you could go to Webtools to
clear the ECA cache.
