Ehcache 3 integration in Apache Shiro

This project will provide Ehcache 3 support in Apache Shiro

Build status:

Sample Configurations

To enable it in Shiro application use the following configuration:

[main]
 cacheManager = org.ehcache.integrations.shiro.EhcacheShiroManager
 securityManager.cacheManager = $cacheManager

To set custom Ehcache configuration file use the following configuration:

[main]
 cacheManager = org.ehcache.integrations.shiro.EhcacheShiroManager
 cacheManager.cacheManagerConfigFile = /path/to/custom/configuration.xml
 securityManager.cacheManager = $cacheManager

Cache Configuration Considerations

By default the CacheManager uses default Shiro specific EhCache configuration. If you wish to change the cache settings, or configure your own ehcache.xml or org.ehcache.CacheManager instance, you will need to configure the cache region to ensure that Sessions are handled correctly. You have to ensure that you have defined cache named shiro-activeSessionCache for Shiro’s needs.

Please have a look at the default configuration file before creating your own.
