```
public interface TransformerFlags
```
Defines flags used by DataCache.put and TransformerData.send. These flags should be ORed together if multiple flags need to be used (e.g. STORE_IN_CACHE|PUBLISH_TO_PEERS|SILENT_SEND).

The flags that are valid for DataCache.put are:
- NO_FLAGS
- STORE_IN_CACHE
- PUBLISH_TO_PEERS
- NO_PERSISTENCE
- SILENT_SEND
The flags that are valid for TransformerData.send are:
- NO_FLAGS
- STORE_IN_CACHE
- PUBLISH_TO_PEERS
- SILENT_SEND
- MAINTAIN_TIMESTAMP

  - STORE_IN_CACHE
```
static final int STORE_IN_CACHE
```
    Store the object/update within the Transformer cache. This flag can be used for both objects and updates.

    Constant Field Values
  - PUBLISH_TO_PEERS
```
static final int PUBLISH_TO_PEERS
```
    Publish the object/update to the DataSource peers. This flag can be used for both objects and updates.

    Constant Field Values
  - NO_PERSISTENCE
```
static final int NO_PERSISTENCE
```
    Do not save the object to disk when the Transformer is shutdown. If the object is not being cached (i.e. the STORE_IN_CACHE flag is not set) then it cannot be saved to disk, even if this flag is omitted.
    
    This flag will only be used by DataCache.put.
    
    See Also:
    
    Constant Field Values
  - SILENT_SEND
```
static final int SILENT_SEND
```
    Do not send the object/update to other Transformer modules. This flag can be used for both objects and updates.
    
    See Also:
    
    Constant Field Values
  - MAINTAIN_TIMESTAMP
```
static final int MAINTAIN_TIMESTAMP
```
    Maintain the feedtime for the update. The feedtime is the time that the last update was received by the Transformer core. If this flag is not set, then the feedtime will be changed to the time that the update is sent by the Transformer module to the core.
    
    This flag will only be used by TransformerData.send.
