Thanks for your reply. We managed to use the grouping feature to accomplish
this.
We do however, have a need for searching elements within the cache.
Is there existing functionality in the framework or is this something that has
to be done outside the JCS framework?
TIA,
Raj

The getMatching API has nothing to do with the colon convention.
The getMatching API allows you to use string pattern matching to retrieve
items. Your keys have to be strings to use it. It even works with the JBDC
disk cache, if you only use patterns that can be converted into like queries.
The colon convention simply allows you to remove items with string keys that
match the substring.
I suppose we need a removeMatching method as well.
