Hello Arman,
I would be possible to save the list as an Rdata object. The process would be
1. create a new item in the cache and retrieve the path
2. use that path in a save( listObj, file="path")
Then you could load the RData object in your next session and it would be
available for use.
Something along the following would save:
myList = list()
bfc = BiocFileCache()
path = bfcnew(bfc, "someIdentifiers key words or name of your list", ext="RData)
save(myList, file=path)
For retrieval in next session:
# get the rid of the list
bfcquery(bfc, c("someIdentifiers key words")
# then choose what rid you want to load from the cache and use that to retrieve
path - in this case BFC12:
path = bfcpath(bfc, "BFC12")
load(path)

Subject: [Bioc-devel] saving and obtaining a list with BiocFileCache package
Hi, it is possible to save a list with BiocFileCache package and then obtain
the same list from it? I have read the vignette but I couldn�t figure it out.
It looked like that I have saved the list to hard drive, but I�m not sure
whether it is still a list or can be obtained as a list. If it is possible to
do so, I would be grateful if someone would kindly provide the code, if not, I
appreciate recommending an alternative package.
Best regards,
Arman
