FUNCTIONS

26   Cache::LRU->new(size => $max_num_of_entries)
27       Creates a new cache object.  Takes a hash as the only argument.  The
28       only parameter currently recognized is the "size" parameter that
29       specifies the maximum number of entries to be stored within the cache
30       object.
31
32   $cache->get($key)
33       Returns the cached object if exists, or undef otherwise.
34
35   $cache->set($key => $value)
36       Stores the given key-value pair.
37
38   $cache->remove($key)
39       Removes data associated to the given key and returns the old value, if
40       any.
41
42   $cache->clear($key)
43       Removes all entries from the cache.
