CacheListener is an interface people actually implement themselves, so "an added method isn't an API change" thinking breaks down. | Right instead you have to introduce a new interface (ExtendedCacheListner or BlockCacheListener). One thing I was toying with in POJO Cache, that I might introduce at a later date is an annotation driven listener, which is more flexible and extensible: | @AttachNotificationListener | @DetachNotificationListener | @ListModifyNotificationListener | public myMethod(Notification notification) | { | .... | } | or they could do (both would work) | @AttachNotificationListener | public void myMethod(AttachNotification notification) | { | .... | } | | @DetachNotificationListener | public void myMethod(DetachNotification notification) | { | .... | } | -Jason View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4052673#...
