[jboss-user] [JBoss Cache: Core Edition] - How do items get automatically removed from the cache?

I've just started looking at JBossCache and I was writing some tests to see how it works. I am trying to put nodes into the cache and then see them expire. I have used a region and used n LRU eviction policy. I was thinking that setting TimeToLiveSeconds and/or MaxAgeSeconds would cause the node to be completely removed from the cache. I know that the RegionManager has to wake up so I setWakeUpIntervalSeconds on the EvictionConfiguration to 4 seconds. | LRUConfiguration lru = new LRUConfiguration(); | lru.setMaxNodes(5000); | lru.setTimeToLiveSeconds(2); | lru.setMaxAgeSeconds(2); | I did a sleep for 10 seconds and the node was still there. I then tried doing the following which I found in the user manual. | Long future = new Long(System.currentTimeMillis() + 2000); | cache.getRoot().getChild(nodeFqn).put(ExpirationConfiguration.EXPIRATION_KEY, future); | | assertTrue(cache.getRoot().hasChild(nodeFqn)); | Thread.sleep(10000); | | // after 5 seconds, expiration completes | assertFalse(cache.getRoot().hasChild(nodeFqn)); | The node was still there. Then I tried this: | ExpirationConfiguration ec = new ExpirationConfiguration(); | ec.setTimeToLiveSeconds(2); | | cache.getRoot().getChild(nodeFqn).put(ExpirationConfiguration.EXPIRATION_KEY, ec); | | assertTrue(cache.getRoot().hasChild(nodeFqn)); | Thread.sleep(10000); | | // after 5 seconds, expiration completes | Node n1 = cache.getRoot().getChild(nodeFqn); | assertFalse(cache.getRoot().hasChild(nodeFqn)); | The node was still there. So if anyone can tell me what I'm missing I would appreciate it. I am expecting to see the node gone from the cache by one of these methods. Thanks for any help you can provide.
