MemcachedCacheEntry (The Adobe Experience Manager SDK 2022.11.9850.20221116T162329Z-220900)

All Known Implementing Classes:

MemcachedCacheEntryImpl
```
public interface MemcachedCacheEntry
```
Provides for serialization and deserialization of higher-level HttpCacheEntry objects into byte arrays suitable for storage in memcached. Clients wishing to change the serialization mechanism from the provided defaults should implement this interface as well as MemcachedCacheEntryFactory.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`HttpCacheEntry`	`getHttpCacheEntry()`	Returns the `HttpCacheEntry` associated with this entry.
`java.lang.String`	`getStorageKey()`	Returns the storage key associated with this entry.
`void`	`set(byte[] bytes)`	Given a serialized representation of a `MemcachedCacheEntry`, attempt to reconstitute the storage key and `HttpCacheEntry` represented therein.
`byte[]`	`toByteArray()`	Returns a serialized representation of the current cache entry.

- Method Detail
  - toByteArray
```
byte[] toByteArray()
```
    Returns a serialized representation of the current cache entry.
  - getStorageKey
```
java.lang.String getStorageKey()
```
    Returns the storage key associated with this entry. May return null if this is an "unset" instance waiting to be set(byte[]) with a serialized representation.
  - getHttpCacheEntry
```
HttpCacheEntry getHttpCacheEntry()
```
    Returns the HttpCacheEntry associated with this entry. May return null if this is an "unset" instance waiting to be set(byte[]) with a serialized representation.
  - set
```
void set(byte[] bytes)
```
    Given a serialized representation of a MemcachedCacheEntry, attempt to reconstitute the storage key and HttpCacheEntry represented therein. After a successful call to this method, this object should return updated (as appropriate) values for getStorageKey() and getHttpCacheEntry(). This should be viewed as an atomic operation on the MemcachedCacheEntry.
    
    Parameters:
    
    bytes - serialized representation
    
    Throws:
    
    MemcachedSerializationException - if deserialization fails. In this case, the prior values for {getStorageKey() and getHttpCacheEntry() should remain unchanged.
