fastCache is a robust and extremely fast implementation of data caching in jboss. it works from its own internally generated keys to speed up the lookup and operations (think of it as the db generated primarykey really only in the webOS layer). FastCache is lenient, say you screw up hash and equals, he won't be unsettled. But his true purpose it to allow fast and robust lookup of keys, something that did not exist previously (well did in jboss1.0). The changes are deeper than I thought, which goes to prove that the cache structures are pervasive in a container :))). And that's it, it compiles, but it isn't fully debugged, I will try to do that asap regards marc PS: we post a new binary :)))) ________________________ Marc Fleury Chief Technology Officer Telkel, Inc. ________________________
