["Daniel Halperin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-609?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15953837#comment-15953837 ] 

Daniel Halperin commented on BEAM-609:
--------------------------------------

[~tgroh] any update here?

Also, if this is just an internal implementation detail / refactoring maybe this could be a starter bug?

> The "acquire-use-release" pattern is relatively common throughout the TransformEvaluators ((Un)BoundedRead, TestStream), and as a result there's some code duplication.
> Refactoring to use a common interface (among the lines of:
> public static class ConcurrentSingleUseInstanceCache<K, V> {
>   public ConcurrentSingleUseInstanceCache(Function<K, V> createInstance) { ... }
>   public @Nullable V tryAcquire(K key) { ... };
>   public void release(K key, V value) { ... }
> }
> )
> would improve this abstraction boundary and get rid of some duplicate logic. We can also test the cache-and-hold implementations more easily.
