I Don't recommend turning off caching except during development.
There is support to handle how your portlets are cached. Just override
AbstractPortlet's getHandle:
public static Object getHandle(Object config)
or better yet, just have your portlet inherit from AbstractInstancePortlet
instead of AbstractPortlet, which uses the instance id for the cache handle:
/**
* Construct the handle used for caching.
* @param config The config object, expected to be a PortletConfig.
*/
public static Object getHandle(Object config)
{
//this implementation expects a PortletConfig object as its
// configuration
PortletConfig pc = null;
if (!(config instanceof PortletConfig))
{
return null;
}
// form the key from the current request's portal page profile
// and the portlet id in the config
pc = (PortletConfig)config;
StringBuffer handle = new StringBuffer(256);
handle.append(pc.getPageId());
handle.append('/');
handle.append(pc.getPortletId());
return handle.toString();
} // getHandle
There are two settings for Parameters in the registry for controlling cache
handles, but to my surprise they are not used in the code:
<field name="cachedOnName" type="boolean">
<bind-xml name="cachedOnName" node="attribute"/>
</field>
<field name="cachedOnValue" type="boolean">
<bind-xml name="cachedOnValue" node="attribute"/>
</field>
