[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBossCache] - Re: JBoss Cache Public API

[mircea.markus]

Another method I don't find appropriate for public API is evict. I do not see an y reason for it to be publicly available, as it is rather internally used by eviction thread.
The only other possible usage I am aware of is in the case of eviction, when you want to use your own "eviction timer" - starting with 3.0 this will be handled through a plugable eviction timer (JBCACHE-1268). 
So if no other use cases for using Cache.evict, I suggest deprecating it from the public API.
