Methods

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.

inherited

select(Iterable<CacheInfo?> entries, DateTime now) → CacheInfo?

Finds the best eviction candidate based on the sampled entries. What distinguishes this approach from the classic data structures approach is that an CacheInfo contains metadata (e.g. usage information) which can be used for making policy decisions, while generic data structures do not. It is expected that implementations will take advantage of that metadata.

inherited

selectEntry(CacheInfo entry, CacheInfo selectedEntry, DateTime now) → bool

Returns true if entry is a better candidate for eviction than the current selectedEntry

toString() → String

A string representation of this object.
