The Springcache plugin allows you to easily add the following functionality to your Grails project:
- Caching of Spring bean methods (typically Grails service methods).
- Caching of page fragments generated by Grails controllers.
- Cache flushing when Spring bean methods or controller actions are invoked.
The plugin depends on the EhCache and EhCache-Web libraries.Contact
The plugin code is hosted on GitHub. Please feel free to fork the plugin and contribute patches.Please raise defects or enhancements against the Grails Springcache plugin component on the Codehaus JIRA.Questions, comments? mailto:robenergizedwork.com or better still contact me via the Grails User mailing list.
- GRAILSPLUGINS-2553 Cached methods with default arguments are not intercepted unless all the arguments are specified. Therefore the cache is completely bypassed (neither hit or missed).
- GRAILSPLUGINS-2544 Due to a bug with Grails itself query string parameters are not included in the generated cache key. This can be a serious issue if you are using pagination for example as query string parameters such as
offset will be ignored resulting in the same cached content being served for every page. This only affects Grails version 1.3.4.

1.2.1
- Support primitive, array and
null service method arguments in cache keys (thanks Luke Daley)

- Allows configuration of ehcache caches directly in
Config.groovy
1.1.2

ehcache.xml
1.1.1

1.0
- Configure alternate caching providers via
Config.groovy rather than having to override bean definitions in resources.groovy
