NAME

6       Cache::Memory - Memory based implementation of the Cache interface
7

SYNOPSIS

9         use Cache::Memory;
10
11         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
12                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );
13
14       See Cache for the usage synopsis.
15

DESCRIPTION

17       The Cache::Memory class implements the Cache interface.  This cache
18       stores data on a per-process basis.  This is the fastest of the cache
19       implementations, but is memory intensive and data can not be shared
20       between processes.  It also does not persist after the process dies.
21       However data will remain in the cache until cleared or it expires.  The
22       data will be shared between instances of the cache object, a cache
23       object going out of scope will not destroy the data.
24

CONSTRUCTOR

26         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( %options )
27
28       The constructor takes cache properties as named arguments, for example:
29
30         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
31                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );
32
33       See 'PROPERTIES' below and in the Cache documentation for a list of all
34       available properties that can be set.
35

METHODS

37       See 'Cache' for the API documentation.
38

PROPERTIES

40       Cache::Memory adds the property 'namespace', which allows you to spec‐
41       ify a different caching store area to use from the default.  All meth‐
42       ods will work ONLY on the namespace specified.
43
44        my $ns = $c->namespace();
45        $c->set_namespace( $namespace );
46
47       For additional properties, see the 'Cache' documentation.
