[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-6443) Add ability to cancel an event in a listener

[Vincent Massol (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-6443?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Vincent Massol updated ISPN-6443:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
My use case is the following:
* I have some lenghty computation that I cache
* I don't want users to incur the wait before the computation is finished

One idea is:
* Upon expiration (or eviction), I'd like to put back the entry in the cache and start a thread to perform a recomputation (which would put the recomputed value in the cache)
* The issue is that the cache has a lock on the entry and thus I can't put it back in the cache.

Thus one solution is to be able to cancel the expiration/eviction events (and thus not have to put back the entry in the cache).

* Thus, upon expiration, I'd like to put back the entry in the cache and start a thread to perform a recomputation (which would put the recomputed value in the cache)
* The issue is that the cache has a lock on the entry and thus I can't put it back in the cache.
