Maybe as an "advanced" API, so as not to pollute the basic API? A bit like:
Foo f = cache.getAdvancedCache().asClass(Foo.class).get(key);
doesn't look much better than a cast, but is more cryptical :)
getting back to the classloader issue, what about:
Cache c = cacheManager.getCache( cacheName, classLoader );
or
Cache c = cacheManager.getCache( cacheName ).usingClassLoader(classLoader );
BTW if that's an issue on the API, maybe you should propose it to
JSR-107 as well ?
