Tristan Tarrant created ISPN-4919: ------------------------------------- Summary: Configuration templates Key: ISPN-4919 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-4919 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Configuration Reporter: Tristan Tarrant Assignee: Tristan Tarrant Fix For: 7.1.0.Alpha1 Currently there is a 1:1 relationship between configuration and named caches. While the programmatic API does have the ability to .read() an existing configuration to create a new one, the declarative config does not. We should introduce the concept of configuration inheritance, e.g.: <local-cache name="eviction-cache"> <eviction strategy="LIRS" maxEntries="10000"/> </local-cache> <local-cache name="mycache" template="eviction-cache" /> Possibly, cache templates should be made "abstract" so that they cannot be instantiated as named caches directly, e.g.: <local-cache name="eviction-cache" abstract="true"> ... </local-cache> -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.1#6329)
