[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (ISPN-905) Enhance cache management methods on EmbeddedCacheManager

[Patrick McFarland (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-905?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12579607#comment-12579607 ] 

Patrick McFarland commented on ISPN-905:
----------------------------------------

As far as I can tell, Cache.stop() would only delete the contents if it is local only, and not written to disk; nor does running Cache.stop() on one cluster member effect other cluster members, their Cache instances remain started.

Cache.remove() should stop the cache on all members of the cluster and also delete whats on disk (if it is backed by a persistent disk store). Indeed, having a cache defined in the config would not effect this either way.

(cacheExists()/getCacheIfExists()) should return (true/the cache) if has been started (locally) and/or has data written to disk (cluster wide). If it is neither started locally nor any cluster member has a disk store for it, then it should return (false/null).

I also agree that stop() should also be transaction safe; I already assumed it was from the way IS is designed.
