cacheable 表达式,多个方法参数的@Cacheable键

@Cacheable(value="bookCache", key="isbn")

public Book findBook(ISBN isbn, boolean checkWarehouse, boolean includeUsed)

How can I specify @Cachable to use isbn and checkWarehouse as key?

Update: Current Spring cache implementation uses all method parameters as the cache key if not specified otherwise. If you want to use selected keys, refer to Arjan's answer which uses SpEL list {#isbn, #includeUsed} which is the simplest way to create unique keys.

The default key generation strategy changed with the release of Spring

4.0. Earlier versions of Spring used a key generation strategy that, for multiple key parameters, only considered the hashCode() of

parameters and not equals(); this could cause unexpected key

collisions (see SPR-10237 for background). The new

'SimpleKeyGenerator' uses a compound key for such scenarios.

Before Spring 4.0

I suggest you to concat the values of the parameters in Spel expression with something like key="#checkWarehouse.toString() + #isbn.toString()"), I believe this should work as org.springframework.cache.interceptor.ExpressionEvaluator returns Object, which is later used as the key so you don't have to provide an int in your SPEL expression.

As for the hash code with a high collision probability - you can't use it as the key.

Someone in this thread has suggested to use T(java.util.Objects).hash(#p0,#p1, #p2) but it WILL NOT WORK and this approach is easy to break, for example I've used the data from SPR-9377 :

System.out.println( Objects.hash("someisbn", new Integer(109), new Integer(434)));

System.out.println( Objects.hash("someisbn", new Integer(110), new Integer(403)));

Both lines print -636517714 on my environment.

P.S. Actually in the reference documentation we have

@Cacheable(value="books", key="T(someType).hash(#isbn)")

public Book findBook(ISBN isbn, boolean checkWarehouse, boolean includeUsed)

I think that this example is WRONG and misleading and should be removed from the documentation, as the keys should be unique.

P.P.S. also see https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-9036 for some interesting ideas regarding the default key generation.

I'd like to add for the sake of correctness and as an entertaining fact that using a secure cryptographic hash function like SHA256, due to the properties of such function IS possible for this task, but to compute it every time may be too expensive.
