Ehcache Statistics by key

Question

Hello all!

I am interested in getting statistics on the Ehcache I have running.

I would like to see the number of hits/misses for a given key over a period of time. Perhaps in the form of a map. For example.

For the passed hour (or however long it has been running)

Key A had 30 hits and 2 misses
Key B had 400 hits and 100 misses
Key C had 2 hits and 1 misses
Key D had 150 hits and 10 misses

I have looked through the documentation (SampledCacheStatistics, SampledCacheStatisticsImpl, SampledCacheStatisticsWrapper, etc) and I am having a terrible time figuring this out.

Has anyone else had experience implementing this?

Any help or ideas on this would be MUCH appreciated!

The EhCache Monitor gives you that type of information... http://ehcache.org/documentation/monitor.html

Programmatic access is available as follows:

    CacheManager cacheManager = CacheManager.getInstance();
    String[] cacheNames = cacheManager.getCacheNames();
    for (int i = 0; i < cacheNames.length; i++) {
        String cacheName = cacheNames[i];
        System.out.println(cacheName+" - "+ cacheManager.getCache(cacheName).getStatistics().toString());
    }
