                 Key: JDO-599
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-599
             Project: JDO
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: api2, api2-legacy, specification
            Reporter: Andy Jefferson
             Fix For: JDO 2 maintenance release 2


Having more control over what goes into an L2 cache is desirable for some 
systems. Currently JDO(2) provides no control other than the pin/unpin/evict 
methods on the DataStoreCache. One way of providing more control would be to 
allow specification via metadata (XML/annotations) for classes/fields.

1. Add a "cacheable" attribute to class/field XML elements with default value 
of "true".
2. Add a "cacheable" property to @PersistenceCapable/@Persistent with default 
value of true.
3. Add a new annotation @Cacheable applicable to class/field/property

The user can then define particular classes to never be L2 cached, and also 
particular fields to never be L2 cached.
