I am looking for a caching framework that supports expiring values a specified time after the last access. It must support Java 5.
I looked at the (very-nice) Google Guava library that supports CacheBuilder, and they promise a back port to Java 5, but at the present time, it only supports 6 (in the latest build).
I know that writing a performant, thread-safe cache is a difficult task that I would rather not take on.
ehcache is a pretty widely used java caching framework. the elements have an expiry config based on “time to idle”.
