I still think that if the cache is already defined, defineConfiguration should throw an exception. This javadoc was written 7 years ago [1], maybe with a different intention. Strange and complex combinations don't help. We have made a clear separation between templates and cache configurations; you should not use regular cache configuration as a template for programmatically defined cache anymore, and if you really want to, there are means to that (load, undefine, define).
Btw., the javadoc is out of date, too, since it mentions default cache which has been removed recently.
That defineConfiguration javadoc is just weird,
^ Most likely my fault! :$ ;)
it says what the Configuration returned by the method will be but it doesn't say what the configuration associated with that cache name in the cache manager will be...
I agree with throwing an exception in defineConfiguration(...) when that cache is already defined. I would not throw an exception from getCache(cache, configurationName) when the cache is already defined, I'd just ignore the new configuration (as we already ignore it when the cache is runninng) and maybe log a warning telling people to use defineConfiguration(cacheName, configurationName, new ConfigurationBuilder().build()) + getCache(cacheName).

So while I was trying to work on this, I have to admit I am even more torn in regards to what to do. Looking at [1] it looks like the template should only be applied if the cache configuration is not currently defined. Unfortunately it doesn't work this way and always applies this template to any existing configuration. So I am thinking an alternative is to instead make it work as the documentation states, only using the template if the cache is not currently defined. This seems more logical to me at least.
With that change the getCache(String, String) could stay as long as it is documented that a template is only applied if no cache configuration exists.
What do you guys think?

I would go for option 2.
Do you think a WARN message will be enough? I am a bit weary about this option myself.
We already started disconnecting the cache definition and retrieval, at least `getCache(name)` doesn't define a new cache based on the default configuration any more. So I don't think it would be too much, even at this point, to deprecate all the overloads of `getCache` that can define a new cache and advise users to use `defineConfiguration` instead.
Hrmm I like the idea of deprecating the overloads :)

When working on another project using Infinispan the code
being used was a
bit interesting and I don't think our template configuration
handling was
expecting it do so in such a way.
Essentially the code defined a template for a distributed
cache as well as
some named caches. Then whenever a cache is retrieved it
would pass the
given name and always the distributed cache template.
Unfortunately with
the way templates work they essentially redefine a cache
first so the actual
cache configuration was wiped out. In this example I was
able to get the
code to change to using a default cache instead, which is
the behavior that
is needed.
The issue though at hand is whether we should allow a user
to call getCache
in such a way. My initial thought is to have it throw some
sort of
configuration exception when this is invoked. But there are
some possible
options.
1. Throw a configuration exception not allowing a user to
use a template
with an already defined cache. This has a slight disconnect
between
configuration and runtime, since if a user adds a new
definition it could
cause runtime issues. 2. Log an error/warning message when this occurs. Is this
enough though?
Still could have runtime issues that are possibly undetected. 3. Merge the configurations together applying the template
first. This
would be akin to how default cache works currently, but you
would get to
define your default template configuration at runtime. This
sounded like the
best option to me, but the problem is what if someone calls
getCache using
the same cache name but a different template. This could get
hairy as well.
Really thinking about the future, disconnecting the cache
definition and
retrieval would be the best option, but we can't do that
this late in the
game.
What do you guys think?
