Yeah, I agree, that would be the place but... The cache settings docs is a bit outdate with respect to properties prefix and contains no info whatsoever about how to turn off a cache. (Non-technical users bail out at this point. No, kidding, they were lost even before, at the no release-svn checkout and build thingy. >:) Often running into outdated docs tends to discourage even those who are keen readers otherwise. People adapt to situations damn fast.)
No problem, lets do a little exploration. Lets go and see web admin. Maxsize=0 means no limit, and this fact comes through only by experience, not the docs. Web admin shows me I can set maxSize and expireTime, but none of this can turn off a cache. No problem, lets see the cache.properties file for existing property names. Though softReference comes into the picture, no commented out example here about turning specific cache off, so still no clue. (Non-experienced java programmers and those who have not enough time are likely to be out of the picture at this point.) No problem, open source, lets see the source code. (Hmmm, we ended up here, again.) Ofbiz is well-designed, and this pays off here, because only a little analysis of UtilCache.java tells all property names, of which none seems to be what we are looking for. At this point we're finished, and I can tell that either turning off a specific cache via cache.properties is not possible, or I really missed something... (Non-ofbiz contributors leave us at this point. One of those who are still standing will probably implement this. Hopefully someone who sees the whole picture about cacheing.) Guys, dont take this to the heart, ofbiz is great, and has a robust design, but the 'no release' and lack and inaccurate documentation 'features' are a real pain in the ass. Every time, not just with cacheing. And these explorations take way too much time to build sg upon it. I suspect I'm not the first one telling this. I really hope you find a documentation tool/framework that suits ofbiz in its stability and usability and 'automationability' and these annoyances will be gone forever. Btw, what is the difference between the following three that all seem to govern beanshell script execution? BeanShellScripts <- for me only turning off this onl worked for .bsh scripts script.BshLocationParsedCache script.BshBsfParsedCache Thanks, András Thursday, March 22, 2007, 4:14:27 PM, you wrote: > András, > Even better than changing anything in code read the doc : > http://tinyurl.com/2ztz4t ;o) > Jacques >> Just one thing to mention: >> Beanshell scripts get cached, so dont forget to clear >> the cache after script modification.
