I see this in JbossCache docs : anonymous wrote : When the eviction policy in effect calls evict() to evict a node from the cache, if passivation is enabled, a notification that the node is being passivated will be emitted to the tree cache listeners and the node and its children will be stored in the cache loader store It means that if passivation is true, a call to evict() will call another method in order to store node into cache loader store. What is the method to call, and How I do this ? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4129015#...
