CacheResolverRegistry class abstract interface

A registry contract for managing multiple CacheResolver pods within JetLeaf.

The CacheResolverRegistry defines the mechanism for registering and coordinating CacheResolver instances. These resolvers are responsible for mapping a Cacheable annotation (logical cache operation) to one or more physical CacheStorage instances managed by underlying CacheManager pods.

Responsibilities

• Acts as a central registry for all cache resolvers.
• Ensures resolvers can be added dynamically or during initialization.
• Serves as the delegation point for composite resolver chains, such as CompositeCacheResolver, to maintain deterministic lookup order.

Usage

A typical implementation (e.g., CompositeCacheResolver) will:

1. Maintain a synchronized set of resolvers.
2. Support lifecycle discovery via PodFactoryAware and SmartInitializingSingleton.
3. Provide resolution delegation through a resolver chain.

Example

final registry = CompositeCacheResolver();
registry.addResolver(myCustomResolver);

• CompositeCacheResolver: A registry implementation that manages multiple resolvers.
• CacheManager: Provides physical cache storage for resolved caches.
