26 Cache::LRU->new(size => $max_num_of_entries)
27 Creates a new cache object. Takes a hash as the only argument. The

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.
