David Kimura created GEODE-3645: ----------------------------------- Summary: Update API CacheFactory::create to return cache object Key: GEODE-3645 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-3645 Project: Geode Issue Type: New Feature Components: native client Reporter: David Kimura
As an application developer I want to control the stack vs heap allocation of my cache object. If we change CacheFactory::create to return a cache object then the application user can pick an allocation scheme. This also allows application developers to bypass smart pointer complexity until the developer deems them necessary. Example: {noformat} auto cache = CacheFactory::createFactory().create(); auto cacheptr = std::make_shared<Cache>(CacheFactory::createFactory().create()); {noformat} Difficulty of implementation is due to Cache/CacheImpl circular dependency. Here are a few examples of various approaches to consider: https://gist.github.com/pivotal-jbarrett/52ba9ec5de0b494368d1c5282ef188ef https://gist.github.com/pivotal-jbarrett/c48ffff3f7f41b187f0ed8c80108aa6a Here are the related email threads of interest: http://markmail.org/message/in5e337npq5euslh http://markmail.org/message/lp2rx2rtyblg72fv -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
