I myself get caching with hibernate which I am using for persistance
but I wanted the more fine grained control like this so that I could page
back and forth using displaytag.org.
here is my jsp code for paging, hope this shows why I am doing it. I guess
my code is more for implimenting a client view than for heavy duty caching.
snip=
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-bean" prefix="bean" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-html" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/struts-logic" prefix="logic" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/c" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/tags/displaytag-el-12" prefix="display" %>
<c:set var="forSaleProperties" value="${forSaleProperties}"></c:set>
<c:set var="contextPath" value="${request.getContextPath}"></c:set>
<c:out value="${request.getContextPath}"/>
<display:table name="${forSaleProperties}" pagesize="15"
requestURI="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/client-search-for-sale-properties-action.do">
<display:column property="id" title="Id"
href="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/client-property-view-for-sale-action.do"
paramId="id" paramProperty="id"/>
<display:column property="name" title="Name"/>
<display:column property="shortDescription" title="Desc"/>
<display:column property="town" title="Town" sortable="true"/>
<display:setProperty name="sort.behavior" value="list" />
<display:setProperty name="paging.banner.include_first_last" value="true" />
</display:table>
=snip
Cause everything is cached it is a snip to move back and forth through
the records.
