Hi all,

I am quite new to ehcache, so excuse me if my question sounds stupid.

I am using ehcache1.1 with hibernate2.x. I am having caching problems when using 2L cache.

Say I have a Department object which has a set of Employees. Assume the Department object has been cached. My problem is the following:

When I add a new Employee, the Department Cache (namely, its employees collection) is NOT refreshed (although the employee is really added in the database).

I have tried the evict() method, but it has not worked as expected.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Chris

Are you caching the collection of Employees in the department? If so, what is the "usage" set to?

John

Yes I am caching the collection within the Department. Useage is set to read-write.

Well, ok I can get the employees-collection cache and remove an item programatically once that item has been modified, deleted etc ... but, I think this can be done automatically, no?

Thanks & Regards
Chris
