Oracle® Coherence .NET API Reference Release 3.7.1
E22844-03

A KeyAssociation represents a key object that has a natural association with another key object.

Namespace:  Tangosol.Net.Cache
Assembly:  Coherence (in Coherence.dll) Version: 3.7.1.23 (3.7.1.23)

Syntax

C#
public interface IKeyAssociation

Remarks

The key object and the associated key may refer to entries in the same or different caches.

For example, the information provided by a key that implements IKeyAssociation may be used to place the key into the same partition as its associated key.

See KeyAssociatedFilter for an example of a distributed query that takes advantage of a custom IKeyAssociation implementation to dramatically optimize its performance.
