Module Ocsigen_cache

module Ocsigen_cache : sig..end

Cache. Association tables (from any kind of database) that keep the most recently used values in memory. It is also possible to set a maximum lifetime for data in the cache.

It is based on a structure of doubly linked lists with maximum size, that keeps only the mostly recently used values first, if you call the up function each time you use a value. (Insertion, remove and "up" in time 1). This structure is exported, so that it can be used in other cases.

Not (preemptive) thread safe. Author(s): Vincent Balat, Raphaël Proust (adding timers)


module Make : functor (A : sig      type key      type valueend) ->

val clear_all_caches : unit -> unit

Clear the contents of all the existing caches

module Dlist : sig..end

Doubly-linked lists with maximum number of entries, and (possibly) limited lifespan for entries.
