Usage Notes

If the pub.cache.lock:acquireLock service acquires a lock, the element remains locked until released with the pub.cache.lock:releaseLock service.

You must acquire and release a lock in the same thread in which pub.cache.lock:acquireLock is executing. Failing to do so could cause the key to remain locked indefinitely.

When using the debug flow service to step through a flow service, depending on your breakpoint settings Designer might use a new thread for each step. You cannot release a lock acquired in a previous step of the same flow if break points are triggered on Designer or if you are stepping through a flow service. To avoid orphaned locks, disable invocations of pub.cache.lock:acquireLock and pub.cache.lock:releaseLock before stepping through the flow service or make sure that pub.cache.lock:acquireLock and pub.cache.lock:releaseLock services are called between the boundaries of two breakpoints.

Integration Server issues a ServiceException in the following cases:

If you do not specify all required input parameters.

Whether or not a cached element needs to be locked depends on the application that is using the element. For example, if an application retrieves and holds an element for a time and needs to prevent another client from changing the element during this time, the application should acquire a lock on the element. However, if the application does not hold the element, a lock might not be required.

If Integration Server cannot find the specified cache manager or cache.

If pub.cache.lock:acquireLock is unable to acquire a lock.

If the specified lockWaitTime is not a valid integer.

If a cache operation fails.
