A module that caches a data structure against a filename, statting the
|
|
file to determine whether it has changed and needs to be re-parsed.
|
|
You supply a routine to generate the data structure given the filename.
|
|
|
|
This module is recommended for files which change infrequently but
|
|
are read often, especially if they are expensive to parse.
|
|
|
|
This approach has the advantage over lazy caching that multiple
|
|
processes holding a cache will all update at the same time so you
|
|
will not get inconsistent results if you request data from different
|
|
processes.
|
|
|
|
The module itself is simply a factory for various backend modules.
|
|
The distribution includes backends for in-memory caching or file
|
|
caching using Storable, plus an adaptor to use any modules offering
|
|
the Cache or Cache::Cache interfaces as the cache implementation.
|
|
|
|
Data structures are automatically serialised/deserialised by the
|
|
backend modules if they are being persisted somewhere other than
|
|
in memory (e.g. on the filesystem).
