using cache

  Asked By: Ella    Date: Jul 21    Category: Java    Views: 614
  

I am working on a project which needs to access some files over the internet on
a specific server. Obviously my company has a proxy server setup to get to the
internet. That means in mt application i will need information about.
1. proxy server, port.
2. username and password to access remote server.

I dont want to hard code the values. I can store these values in the database to
make modifications easy. But the problem is that i dont want to hit the database
everytime. I want to be able to cache the details and reuse. At the same time to
avoid stale information, i will have to refresh that cache.

How can I implement it in java? Has anyone ever tried caching certain values? I
dont want to bounce the whole server or get into the code for changing few
parameters.

you can build a singleton registry using for example a hashmap, so put
your config values  in registry once and get everytime you need them...

also handy are properties files  (myvariables.properties). java  supplies
an interface for reading values  out of them, in java.util.Properties
