[infinispan-dev] eviction + listeners in a local cache with unbounded container

[Galder Zamarreño]

Technically, what your looking for there is for an expiration listener, as opposed to eviction listener:
https://community.jboss.org/thread/195896

Expiration notifications are not currenly implemented:
