[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBCACHE-251) Cached map uses toString() of key to create FQN

[Ben Wang (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCACHE-251?page=all ]

Ben Wang resolved JBCACHE-251.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Done
      Assignee: Ben Wang  (was: Manik Surtani)

In 1.4 we have construct the new Fqn directly, so this should be a non-issue anymore.

> The cached map adds values to the cache by creating a child FQN as follows:
> new Fqn(getFqn(), key);
> or, more recently, AopUtil.constructFqn(getFqn(), key);
> This ultimately calls toString() on the key object when the FQN is converted to a string representation. However, toString() should not have to be written to give a meaningful value to the cache in this instance. A well-written toString() will most likely produce very cache-unfriendly FQNs.
> A better option is to convert the key object into an internal representation using hashcode(), similar to the default Object.toString() implementation.
