KCache v0.0.2

Changelog for KCache Class

Version 0.0.2

• Improved API and Additional Features
  • Asynchronous withCache Method: Added withCacheAsync method for asynchronous caching and computation of values when a cache miss occurs. This method supports coroutines and helps offload computation tasks.
  • Eviction Callback Enhancement: Expanded the eviction callback to include both the key and value being evicted, providing more useful information to developers when items are removed from the cache.
  • Auto Cleanup Toggle: Introduced a method to enable or disable the automatic cleanup of expired cache items. This allows for more granular control over when cache cleanup should occur.
  • Debug Callback: Added the option to provide a debug callback for logging cache operations such as put, get, and eviction. This helps developers monitor cache behavior more easily.
  • Optimized Memory Usage: Improved memory management in the cache to ensure faster access times and reduced memory consumption, especially when handling a large number of keys.
  • Performance Improvements: Reduced latency for cache lookups and evictions, improving overall performance in multithreaded environments.
  • Additional Cache Configuration Options: Introduced more granular configuration options in CacheBuilder, including better support for large data sets and tighter memory limits.
  • API Documentation and Code Comments: Enhanced code documentation and added more detailed comments for each method, making it easier for developers to understand and use the cache library effectively.

KCache v0.0.1

Changelog for KCache Class

Version 0.0.1

• Initial Release
  • Introduced an in-memory cache with basic functionality.
  • Supported time-to-live (TTL) for cache items, where items older than the TTL are considered expired.
  • Implemented the Least Recently Used (LRU) eviction policy to manage cache overflow when the maximum size (maxSize) is exceeded.
  • Allowed both synchronous and asynchronous access to cache items via put/get methods and putAsync/getAsync methods.
  • Enabled automatic periodic cache cleanup with configurable cleanup interval (cleanupIntervalMillis).
  • Provided optional logging functionality to track cache operations (e.g., item addition, eviction, removal, and expiration).
  • Introduced an eviction callback function to notify when items are evicted from the cache.
  • Added CacheBuilder class for flexible and fluent configuration of cache settings (TTL, max size, cleanup interval, logging, eviction callback).
