## be.ehealth.technicalconnector.cache
Interface Cache<K,V>

All Known Implementing Classes:
  HashMapCache

    public interface Cache<K,V>

A cache is similar to a map or a key value store, allowing to retrieve and update values which are associated to keys.

Method Summary
`void` | `clear()` Clear the cache.
`boolean` | `containsKey(K key)` Returns true, if there is a mapping for the specified key.
`V` | `get(K key)` Returns a value associated by the given key, that contains a non expired value.
`String` | `getName()` A configured or generated name of this cache instance.
`void` | `put(K key, V value)` Updates an existing cache entry for the specified key, so it associates the given value, or, insert a new cache entry for this key and value.
`void` | `putAll(Map<K,V> keystores)`
`void` | `remove(K key)` Removes the mapping for a key from the cache if it is present.
