When creating the BasicAnnotationsItem for the cache from the CachingMDC I need a reference to a MetaDataLoader which is used to determine if it is cachable: | public BasicAnnotationItem(MetaDataLoader loader, T annotation) | { | super(loader, annotation.annotationType().getName(), annotation); | } | | public T getAnnotation() | { | return getValue(); | } | CachingMDC does not implement MetaDataLoader so I can't pass in 'this'. My current ideas are either: -make CachingMDC implement MDL and always return true from isCachable() -create a MDL implementation that returns true if all the AnnotationItems are cachable, otherwise return false.
