How does this code work (IMO it doesn't), ldap2.py
def find_entries(self, filter=None, attrs_list=None, base_dn=None,
scope=_ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE, time_limit=None,
size_limit=None, search_refs=False,
paged_search=False):
def _get_limits():
"""Get configured global limits, caching them for more calls"""
if not _lims:
config = self.get_ipa_config()
_lims['time'] = int(config.get('ipasearchtimelimit',
[None])[0])
_lims['size'] = int(config.get('ipasearchrecordslimit',
[None])[0])
return _lims
_lims = {}
if time_limit is None:
time_limit = _get_limits()['time']
if size_limit is None:
size_limit = _get_limits()['size']
Code above is supposed to do caching, but it doesn't do it. This might
work if _lims were self._lims.
I tried similar code to test this behavior:
class test:
def __init__(self):
pass
def cached_call(self):
"""configured global limits"""
_lims = {}
def _get_limits():
if not _lims:
_lims['t']='oujeee'
print 'getting limits'
return _lims
print "Limits:", _get_limits()['t']
t = test()
t.cached_call()
t.cached_call()
t.cached_call()
t.cached_call()
Output:
$ python testcaching.py
Limits: getting limits
oujeee
Limits: getting limits
oujeee
Limits: getting limits
oujeee
Limits: getting limits
oujeee
So it does not do caching, or am I wrong?
