While researching the answer to a question posed to this list, I discovered
that the Model-Glue 2 caching functions are not present in Model-Glue 3. The
following quote is from
http://docs.model-glue.com/wiki/HowTos/HowToUseContentCaching :
Model-Glue has historically provided some basic caching features. Model-Glue
2 introduced a set of basic functions on the base Controller object that
allow developers to cache values for a configured period of time. These
functions are:
*AddToCache* - This adds a named value to the cache for a period of
time.
*ExistsInCache* - This indicates if a named element exists in the cache.
*GetFromCache* - This gets the named item from the cache.
*RemoveFromCache* - This removes a named item from the cache.
See the API documentation for more details on these functions.
Model-Glue 3 builds significantly on top of the caching features of
Model-Glue 2. Model-Glue 3 has a granular way to cache the outcome of event
handlers and views. However, Model-Glue 3 intentionally does not have an
object caching system. This is really a feature of your model and is not one
of Model-Glue's concerns.
I read "Model-Glue 3 builds significantly on top of the caching features of
Model-Glue 2" to mean that Model-Glue 3 retains the previous caching
functionality and adds to it with its own caching features. However, the
rest of that paragraph implies that Model-Glue 3 caching only caches the
results of events and not values (which is the only thing the Model-Glue 2
functions *can* cache).
So, my question is this: was the omission of the Model-Glue 2 caching
functions from Model-Glue 3 intentional or not? If it was intentional, I'll
rephrase the above quoted section to make it clearer, add an item to the
http://docs.model-glue.com/wiki/UpgradingModelGlue/UpgradingFromModelGlue2page.
If it was not intentional, I'll file the omission in the issue
tracker. In either case the API documentation needs to be fixed as it only
documents 2 of the above 4 functions.
Cheers,
