I cache file contents in my cache. The trick is this... the cache will attempt to serialize and cache the java object you pass it. So passing it the input stream is wrong... it will try to cache the input stream object not the contents of the stream.
What I do is read my content into a ByteBuffer and then cache that. On Fri, Oct 9, 2009 at 12:04 PM, Chopin hu <hucho...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Yes. Actually, that is exactly what I am looking for.
