How to make @Cacheable work for @Controller methods?

[mschipperheyn]

Hi,

I'm just curious how to make @Cacheable work for Controller methods?

I have a core/web module project with
cache:annotation-driven in core/applicationContext.xml

When I add
cache:annotation-driven in web/applicationContext.xml

my @Cacheable methods are not executed.

I've also tried adding

 <bean id="cacheManager" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheCacheManager" p:cacheManager-ref="ehcache"/>
    <bean id="ehcache" class="org.springframework.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManagerFactoryBean" 
        p:config-location="classpath:/ehcache.xml"/> 

to web/applicationContext.xml

Any ideas?

A few days ago i read this note in the official documentation:

Note
<cache:annotation-driven/> only looks for @Cacheable/@CacheEvict on beans in the same application context it is defined in. This means that, if you put <cache:annotation-driven/> in a WebApplicationContext for a DispatcherServlet, it only checks for @Cacheable/@CacheEvict beans in your controllers, and not your services.
