I'm sorry I'm a bit new to this stuff so I don't know if I understand what you are asking. We create a web app with EJBs etc and deploy it into a JBoss container. The cache service is configured via an xml file that deploys as a service in the container. We have created an abstract cache class that we extend for each cache region. The abstract class implements methods that uses a TreeCacheMBean object to acces cached objects. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4101344#...
