Class CacheObject<T>

java.lang.Object

com.atlassian.jira.util.map.CacheObject<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class CacheObject<T>
extends Object
implements Serializable

Used for keys or values in Maps that do not support null keys, or in caches where it is needed to differentiate between a cached 'null' value and an object not being in the cache. Although this class is marked as being Serializable, instances will only truly be thus if the value they wrap is itself Serializable (or null). Copyright (c) 2002-2004 All rights reserved.
