Method Details

getCacheEntryVersion

long getCacheEntryVersion()

Deprecated.

Returns a version counter. An implementation may use timestamps for this or an incrementing number. Timestamps usually have issues with granularity and are harder to use across clusters or threads, so an incrementing counter is often safer.
