Deleting object from cache

This method deleted an object from cache if it is present there. All methods are available via Backendless.Cache.[methodname] accessor:

// synchronous method
public void delete( String key )

// asynchronous methods
public void delete( String key, AsyncCallback<Object> callback )

where:

Argument	Description
key	identifies the object to delete from cache.
callback	the callback used for asynchronous calls to deliver result or fault to the calling program.

Example

AsyncCallback<Object> callback = new AsyncCallback<Object>()
    {
      @Override
          public void handleResponse( Object result )
          {
             Log.i( "MYAPP", "[ASYNC] object has been deleted from cache" );
          }

          @Override
          public void handleFault( BackendlessFault backendlessFault )
          {
            Log.e( "MYAPP", "Error - " + backendlessFault.getMessage() );
          }
    };

    // delete object asynchronously
    Backendless.Cache.delete( "firstorder", callback );

    // delete object synchronously
    Backendless.Cache.delete( "firstorder" );
    Log.i( "MYAPP", "[SYNC] object has been deleted from cache" );

Codeless Reference

where:

Argument	Description
key name	The name is used to identify the key that must be deleted from cache.

This operation does not return a value.

Consider the following key-value pairs stored in cache:

The example deletes the object associated with the key "orderName" from the cache.

The result of this operation will look as shown below after the Codeless logic runs, as you can see the object has been successfully deleted from cache:
