6.4. Use the Default Cache

6.4.1. Add and Remove Data from the Cache

JBoss Data Grid offers an interface that is similar to the proposed JSR-107 API to access and alter data stored in a cache.
The following procedure is an example that defines what each line entered into the DefaultCacheQuickstart.java file does:

Procedure 6.2. Add and Remove Data from the Cache

  1. Add an entry, replacing key and value with the desired key and value:
    cache.put("key", "value");
    
  2. Confirm that the entry is present in the cache:
    assertEquals(1, cache.size());
    assertTrue(cache.containsKey("key"));
    
  3. Remove the entry from the cache:
    Object v = cache.remove("key");
    
  4. Confirm that the entry is no longer present in the cache:
    assertEquals("value", v);
